IMPLEMENTATION PLANGantt chart is used for managing project and this is commonly used as well popular wayof showing events or task with their timing of completing it. On life side of same chart activitiesis given along with their timing on the top. Every task is presented by bar; length and position ofbar shows date on which work should be started, time period as well completion date of activity.This kind of first technique is was developed in 1896 by Karol Adamiecki who called it“harmonogram”. But after sometime name of this was changed on the name of Henry Gantt whocreate his chart in 1910-1915. it was firstly used by United State when world war was going onfor making schedule of different task and also in completing project at their dead line (Verzuh,2015).3

Thus, Gantt chart is most popular tool used by companies in managing activitiesaccording to their completing time.

On the other hand, work break down structure means dividation of entire task into smallunits to complete on it time in better many. Allocation is done according to skills and knowledgeof employees as well their capabilities to do it. When individual have their own responsibilitiesand duties then so work according to that (Leach, 2014). UBER is applying work break downstructure in their company to achieve their project in proper manner and on time.

Moreover itmotivate employees working in organisation by dividing their work and giving them time toachieve their task in proper manner.Although, it look like tree because its format which highlight dividation of task in smallsmall units for achieving entire project. It is created by top level management of organisation andrest of team is responsible for assigning work into different departments according to their skills,knowledge as well expertise. Whole things is done including these elements like size, durationand obligation because these are important in achieving desire goal. When UBER use this intheir workings then they can complete their work in smooth way. So respective enterprise haveto do this for dividing their day to day working with work break down structure and mainly usefor removing workload and for motivating employees. 4
