What resources are typically needed for each deliverable in a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)?

Typically, the resources needed for each deliverable in a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) include human resources (team members with the necessary skills and expertise), physical resources (such as materials, equipment, and facilities), and intangible resources (like software, data, and information). These resources are identified and allocated based on the nature and requirements of each deliverable.

A mini progress tracker can enhance the effectiveness of a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) by providing additional details across tasks. It allows for a more granular view of the progress of each task, helping to identify any potential bottlenecks or delays in the project. This can lead to more accurate project planning and better resource allocation.

A deliverable-based Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) focuses on the outputs of the project rather than the activities needed to produce them. It breaks down the project into smaller components based on the deliverables. This approach allows for a clear visualization of what resources are needed for each deliverable across different work sections and activities. It helps in better resource allocation, risk assessment, and project control.
