Using the scenario below, create a Product-Oriented WBS. Be sure to include the budget amount and expected relative work percentage for each item, subsection, and branch of the WBS.

Scenario

You have been hired as a Systems Analyst for a startup health & wellness company called, BioTrakker, which helps people improve their health by implementing diet & exercise programs, finding ways to reduce stress, and helping them to track critical biometrics over time, such as blood pressure, cholesterol, & body fat percentage. The company has grown over the last few months and has just raised its first round of funding, allowing them to hire you and several other people.

The founder, a retired Olympic swimmer named Bart, has decided he wants to switch from using paper and begin implementing a software program that can be used to interact with the company's clients more efficiently. Bart has asked you, as the Systems Analyst, to build a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to scope and assign work to the various software developers. He has asked you to include the budget amount and expected relative work percentage for each item, subsection, and branch of the WBS.

You meet with Bart and other stakeholders of the system and determine the system needs to have the following deliverables:

Architecture (cloud-based in AWS):

Application servers are running PHP & Apache in an autoscaling group to scale horizontally.

RDS database instance with two readable secondary instances to scale horizontally.

The goal of this lab is to create a Product-Oriented Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) using a hypothetical scenario. You are encouraged to use LucidChart to build your Work Breakdown Structure, but you can use any technology you are familiar with as long as it results in a WBS as described in the course. This assignment will be graded using the rubric below.
