The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) provides a structural view into the project. It is an essential tool for planning and executing the project. The WBS is a useful resource for project management and should be consulted for relevant information on each component of the WBS. Included in the WBS description can be: a brief definition of the WBS element (function, deliverable, etc.) associated activities, milestones, and other information such as performance measurement criteria, statement of work paragraph number, contract line item, start and end dates, resource requirements, cost estimates, quality requirements, technical content, contact information, and revision history.  A WBS Dictionary contains more detailed information about elements within a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS).
