Project Management WBS

This assignment presents a detailed Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for a project, likely related to event planning or a similar undertaking. The WBS outlines the project's tasks, their durations, start and finish dates, and dependencies. Each task is broken down into sub-tasks, creating a hierarchical structure. The provided data is formatted as a table, suitable for importing into project management software to create a Gantt chart or for manual scheduling. The level of detail suggests a significant project with multiple phases, including event scoping, resource allocation, budgeting, advertising, partnership development, social media engagement, event execution, feedback collection, and project closure. The WBS is a valuable tool for project planning, monitoring, and control, ensuring all tasks are accounted for and dependencies are managed effectively.
