report identifies the scope and objectives of the project and delivers a work breakdown structure.
The sequence of activities are presented in the report in form of a work breakdown structure. A
schedule Gantt chart has been prepared for the project as well. The cost of each and every
activities of the tour is calculated and the details are indicated in form of a cost table.
