The PBS is identical in format to the work breakdown structure (WBS), but is a separate entity and is used at a different step in the planning process. The PBS precedes the WBS and focuses on cataloguing all the desired outputs (products) needed to achieve the goal of the project.
The Logical Framework Approach takes the form of a four-by-four project table, often referred to as a "Logframe". The rows represent types of events that take place as a project is implemented: Activities, Outputs, Purpose and Goal (from bottom to top on the left hand side — see EC web site under external links).
Front-end loading (FEL), also referred to as Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), Front End Planning (FEP), pre-project planning (PPP), and early project planning, is the process for conceptual development of projects in processing industries such as upstream oil and gas, petrochemical, natural gas refining, extractive metallurgy, waste-to-energy, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.
For example, if a machine is planned to run 100 hours a week, but in reality runs only 50, then the availability is 50%. [3] Performance – compares the ideal output and the actual output. For example, if a certain process is planned to take 10 minutes, but actually takes 20, then the productivity is 50%. [3]
The GBS is the culmination of three concepts: the hierarchical relationship of product development, the work breakdown structure and requirements traceability.. The concept of a hierarchical relationship among objectives in product development was identified by Joseph M. Juran in Juran's Quality Control Handbook [2] where he states in section 2.2, subsection Hierarchy of Product Features ...
Project management is the process of supervising the work of a team to achieve all project goals within the given constraints. [1] This information is usually described in project documentation, created at the beginning of the development process.
Executive summaries are important as a communication tool in both academia and business. For example, members of Texas A&M University's Department of Agricultural Economics observe that "An executive summary is an initial interaction between the writers of the report and their target readers: decision makers, potential customers, and/or peers.
Example from MIL-HDBK-881, which illustrates the first three levels of a typical aircraft system [1] A work-breakdown structure (WBS) [2] in project management and systems engineering is a breakdown of a project into smaller components. It is a key project management element that organizes the team's work into manageable sections.
