In this deliverable teams using Microsoft Project will create a work breakdown structure (WBS) by listing all of the project life cycle and systems development life cycle phases and the associated deliverables that are needed for completing your project. Be sure to work through the MPS Links to an external site.tutorial first. Also, be sure to follow the work package concept shown in Figures 5.8 and 5.9. Your WBS should include:

a. Milestones for each phase and deliverableAchieving a milestone will tell every- one associated with the project that the phase or deliverable was completed satisfactorily.

b. Activities/TasksDefine a set of activities or tasks that must be completed to produce each deliverable.

c. Resource AssignmentsAssign people and other appropriate resources to each activity. This will be based on the people and resources that you identified when you completed the project infrastructure assignment from the previous chapter. Keep in mind that adding resources to an activity may allow the activity to be completed in a shorter amount of time; however, it may increase the cost of completing that task or activity.

d. Estimates for Each Activity/TaskBased on the tasks or activities and the resources assigned, develop a time estimate for each task or activity to be completed. For the purposes of this assignment, you should use a combination of estimation techniques such as time-boxing and bottom-up estimation.
