Loading ...In this podcast, Ricardo talks about how to create a WBS. He explains that even though there are no specific rules to create a WBS, the most important thing is to allow the ones who will execute the work to fully understand what needs to be done. Ricardo also explains that the WBS does not provide any chronological sequence, but instead must guarantee that all the work to be produced is effectively broken down up to the point where the activities can be assigned to those who will execute them.

Legal! Mais uma aula esclarecedora, as quais estão me ajudando a aprender sobre gerenciamento de projetos
Ricardo, muitíssimo obrigada por suas orientações. Estou desenvolvendo uma wbs onde as entregas tem exatamente as características abordadas no seu post. Agora ficou fácil decidir como agrupá-las.
abraços.
Operacionalizaçao da EAP:
– a EAP deve ser orientada para as entregas;
– o objetivo da EAP nao é um cronograma;
– o objetivo da é EAP é a decomposiçao das entregas em pacotes, seja pacotes por departamento ou departamentos por pacote;
