Work Breakdown Structure Overview

A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) decomposes a project into smaller, manageable components by organizing scope into deliverables, tasks, and subtasks. It provides a hierarchical framework that makes it easier to estimate effort, assign responsibilities, and track progress. The WBS ensures that all project work is captured, prevents scope gaps, and creates a visual roadmap of how objectives will be delivered. By providing structure and clarity, it aligns stakeholders, supports scheduling and budgeting, and improves overall project control.
