The WBS organizes the total scope of a project and reflects the work specified for the approved project scope. The WBS serves as an essential tool for the project team to overcome large project uncertainties. The WBS is a key input to the project's schedule, budget, risk, and performance tracking and serves as a cross-discipline foundation upon which to report project status and progress in a unified and standard manner. The WBS also functions as a mechanism to balance management's need for control through the appropriate level-of-detail representation. As a comprehensive update to the Practice Standard for Work Breakdown Structures - Second Edition, the third edition applies the WBS to the predictive, iterative, incremental, and agile project life cycles; it also explores several different types of decomposition in practice today. The Practice Standard for Work Breakdown Structures - Third Edition aligns with other recent PMI standards, including A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) - Sixth Edition. This practice standard provides practitioners with a useful tool to create a valuable, high-quality WBS for portfolios, programs, or projects
