Due Week 4: Work Breakdown Structure and Network Diagram

According to the PMBOK, “the WBS is a deliverable-oriented hierarchical decomposition of the work to be executed by the project team, to accomplish the project objectives and create the required deliverables.” In other words, it lists the tasks, the sub-tasks, the sub-sub-tasks, etc., for the project.

For this phase, you will create a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the project you selected during Phase One. Remember that the WBS starts with your major deliverables (that you stated in your Scope Management Plan) at the highest level. The lower levels have the tasks required to complete those deliverables. You should have at least three tasks under each deliverable, but you may have as many tasks as needed to ensure that the deliverables are complete. Review the textbook (and the PMBOK, if you have it) for some suggestions on how best to create a WBS. From your work breakdown structure, develop a project task list with dependencies. Add durations. Then submit a network diagram (using MS Project) and a project schedule.

Develop the Work Breakdown Structure

·  Your WBS should have a minimum of 25-30 tasks and be three subtasks deep.

·  Make sure to use verb/object task names (for example, “Develop software”).

o  Enter tasks in MS Project.

o  Create the predecessor relationships to create a network diagram.

o  DO NOT LINK SUMMARY TASKS!

o  In the Gantt Chart Tools tab, check the box marked “Outline Number” in the Show/Hide group.

Deliverables:

·  In MS Project, print the following:

o  Gantt Chart Entry Table on no more than three pages [View > Tables > Entry]

§  Include Task Name, Duration, Start, Finish, and Predecessor columns with Gantt Chart.

o  Schedule Table on one page [View > Tables > Schedule]

§  Include only the default columns (Task Mode, Task Name, Start, Finish, Late Start, Late Finish, Free Slack, Total Slack) and do not include the Gantt Chart. Make sure that all columns are wide enough to read completely.

o  Network Diagram on one page [Task tab > View group > Network Diagram]

§  Highlight Critical Path and Circle Milestones.

§  Justify why you chose your milestones. (Hint: use milestones from the scope statement or look for key merge or burst activities.)

§  Also print out the network diagram on two to three pages so that task information can be read.

o  Using the Resource Sheet (View > Resource Sheet) develop and print a list of resources required for your project. Include Max.Units and Costs (Std. Rate, Ovt. Rate, Cost/Use).

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on What do you make of arguments in religiously fractured community you are familiar What do two different visions share a critique of contemporary lifeUse them together to identify a problem for the individual and society to analyze its possible sources. It needs to be at least 1250 words.

Younger Americans sometimes view our elders and their advice with some suspicion, we rebel against them. In place of tradition and the guidance of elders we students turn to a kind of individualism that is itself groundless and unoriginal. In a way it is like, through successive generations, instead of looking for something larger than themselves and their tiny egos, students and young people in society in general turn to narcissistic self-indulgence. They follow their whims, being disrespectful of authority, chasing momentary pleasures, or else turning to drugs and other forms of escape. It is all so totally unoriginal and worn out, because every generation is the same. So few realize that while to themselves they are being original, in fact to the jaded, to the older ones, they are acting out aspects of themselves that are the most unconscious, the most predictable, and the most lacking in any kind of authentic awakening. There seems to be no sense of awareness of something deeper and more profound among the youth. It is a general sickness, to be sure, this absence of anything real and substantial that young people and students can latch on to for real stability, and popular culture and the shallow lives of their peers do not help. It is as if, with every generation, instead of following a wise and proven tradition that has examined and lived through the follies of men who had come before, young people “reinvent the wheel”, so to speak, and make the same mistakes over and over again. The problem has everything to do with the absence of depth and soul in the things that young people do. There is lack of depth in their pursuits, and in the things, institutions, and lifestyles that they look to for meaning. There is nothing in what they do or acquire that seems to give them a sense of something more than what the surface of life and their egos have to offer. It is interesting that both Thurman and Armstrong seem to hold some answers, or

Write a 7 pages paper on learning development through feedback. The recruitment and selection function in the business organisations acts as one of the most important functions that would help the organisation in enhancing its organisational potential. Recruitment and selection of the right labour force are essentially needed for the business organisations in order to meet its strategic needs in developing the right product process or service parameters to help serve the customers in an enhanced manner. To help enhance this activity the business organisations gain the support of online socialization networks like Facebook. This being an innovative approach helps the business organisations in not only expanding on their brand but also gains a large amount of effective manpower for the business organisations (Cushway, 2010, p.28). The paper in this connection tends to review the different advantages and disadvantages related to the endeavour of the business organisation to take the help of socialization networking sites in this direction. It seeks to understand the manner in which social networking sites can be administered by the different companies to help in gaining the right people for the posts created in the concern.

The emergence of social networking sites like Facebook has helped in the efficient transformation of the recruitment and selection process in a great manner. The social networking sites like Facebook, other internet portals like Monster.com, Naukri.com help the organisations in generating a pool of effective human resources. Large organisations like Ernst and Young are taking help of the social networking activities to build a stronger and effective face of the organisation to the broader society. Rendering feedback through blogs and these sites has helped the concerns in gaining a wider network of people interested in serving the organisations. The recruitment and selection process enabled through the social networking sites helps in reducing the cost factor involved with such and also helps the concern in getting a steady flow of the right human resources (Dyck and Nubert, 2008, p.361-362).&nbsp.
