American Broadband Managed Networks and Broadband Solutions


 
 
American Broadband, Inc. employs a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) template to provide a common structure for the creation of the overall planning and control of the project. This WBS template is the basis for ABi to divide the project into definable sections from which a detailed project plan can be created, and allows the Project Manager to accurately track the project status.

The ABi PM reviews the Statement of Work to identify which of the Level 2 tasks are required to accomplish the success of the project. The PM then works with the project team to create the subtasks for each Level 2 Task and identifies the accountable person to track all of these subtasks.
