ITPEC FE Subject A October 2024 Question 41

Source exam: ITPEC FE Subject A October 2024Topic: Project Management

ITPEC FE Subject A October 2024 — Question 41 of 60

WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) breaks the entire project scope into smaller, hierarchically organized work packages so that nothing is overlooked and each piece can be estimated and assigned.

Why not others:
- (a) Clarifying sequence and critical path — this describes PERT/CPM (network diagram)

- (c) Optimizing total cost via duration/cost trade-off — this describes crashing

- (d) Horizontal bars showing start/end times and progress — this describes a Gantt chart

Key rule: WBS = hierarchical decomposition of scope into manageable work packages.
