How can a company benefit from implementing a phase-based WBS diagram in their project management?

Implementing a phase-based Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) diagram in project management can provide several benefits to a company. Firstly, it helps in organizing and visualizing the project's tasks and deliverables in a structured manner. This can enhance understanding and communication among team members. Secondly, it allows for better planning and scheduling as tasks are broken down into manageable parts. This can lead to improved efficiency and productivity. Lastly, it aids in risk identification and management as potential issues can be spotted early during the planning phase.

Question was asked on:

There are two types of WBS diagrams: Phase-based and deliverable-based. The typical Work Breakdown Structure chart is phase-based and resembles a tree diagram. The top-level is the project title, final deliverable, or even a new feature. The second level is the controls account. The next row is the work packages section, where the groups of tasks that lead to your controls account as listed. Finally, there's the key activities section where tasks needed to complete the work package are listed and grouped (Slide 3-4)
