Task 3
1. The WBS includes all the tasks that have been defined under the team’s charter and all
deliverables. The Stakeholder approval and sign off were the final tasks that have been included
as it important the stakeholders are satisfied that the system has been completely implemented.
2. WBS helps the team in getting a bird’s eye view on all the tasks that need to be completed and
the sequence that need to be followed to reach the final objective. Therefore, it has been
considered important.
3. The top down approach has been considered as the budget was already estimated from the
management and all the activities has to conform under the budget.
4. The process-oriented WBS has been developed where the system will be developed, tested and
the improvements will be implemented and then will be tested again for the finalization.
5. The WBS was developed directly with the MS Project and there were many instances when
certain tasks were inserted later which required rearrangements.
6. The approach in an organizational chart manner as it was easy to visualize the whole project.
However, despite that approach some information were left to enter which led to insertion of that
activity later in the project.

7. The support of teammates was there and it was helpful. The team helped in identifying the
activities that could have missed if I had done myself.
