After the lecture and researches, we got to know the related concepts. A work breakdown structure (WBS) is a hierarchical outline that identifies all the products and work elements involved in a project. It defines the relationship of the final deliverable (the project) to sub-deliverables, and in turn, their relationships to work packages.In terms of the project, a local stage play, we regard it as successive works from the scheme of play to a performance. In order to conduct the WBS based on a practical situation, we followed the methods used in some existing successful cases on theatre and stage play. And to present our outcomes completely, this report includes the following chapters.Background: states the given question and identifies the primary points and project objectives. WBS: covers lists of deliverables and detailed descriptions on each level and deliverable. These are presented as coded items in a diagram. Work Packages: divides the deliverables to lists of simple work packages and picks one of these as an example to demonstrate the cost accounts.OBS: reveals an organizational structure of the crew in the project and units’ responsibilities.Evaluations: evaluates the teamwork and individual performance.Summaries: summarises successes, failures and problems in the project and gained experience.BackgroundHere is the given projectExercise 5: Develop a WBS for a local stage play.Develop a WBS for a local stage play.Be sure to identify the deliverables and organizational units (people) responsible.How would you code your system?Give an example of the work packages in one of your cost accounts.Develop a corresponding OBS which identifies who is responsible for what.The given project definesAim: to develop a WBS for a local stage play.Specific Situation: a local stage play.Final output: WBS, Code System, an example of work packages and an OBS.Detailed Requirements:A WBS in such situation with identified deliverables and organizational units responsible.A coding solution and a completed WBS Coding System.An example of the work packages in one of our cost accounts.An OBS identifying units’ responsibility according to the WBS.Relationship of the listed outputsA WBS is the essential foundation for the whole project and each identified deliverable is an element for the whole structure.Coding System is linked to the levels and deliverables the WBS involves. Once a proper coding solution is applied, each level, deliverable and sub-deliverable can be present as a numbering element, which can be used in the following outputs.If a lowest sub-deliverable is totally identified in the WBS, it will be easy to take any one of them as an example to work out the work packages in the corresponding cost account.An OBS identifies units’ responsibility, and each unit can do finish a specific work package rather than a fuzzy one. To make the OBS diagram more compact, the codes can be filled in standing for each work package.BackgroundOur setting on such projectA stage play is a presentation of literature on stage, on a comparable scale to dramas, operas and ballets. By taking advantage of the stage as a performance space, plays can be conducted to an excellent effect by applying more technical elements. Consequentially, arranging a stage play requires plenty of work and teamwork from each section of a theatre team. Further, the given project limits the scale of performance, which means some considerations on regions should also be concerned.
