I am a PM for Software Applications I was watching video's just to freshen up on my approach and this is the best explanation of WBS anywhere. You keep it simple which makes it easy to understand, thank you.
How would you break down continuous tasks in to WBS? Say you’re building 100 airplanes, each plane would require assembly, testing, painting etc. You would start assembling first few and while they are being tested and painted you assemble the next few. The stages are overlapped and each with multiple instances(planes)
After the completion of first one the project will become a continuous operation /process with standard procedure, schedule, capacity of man, material, machine, market,plant with pre determined wbs. Time study, movement study, productivity etc can estimate for continuous program.
writing???? Man, that is hieroglyphics! I have seen doctors who wrote better. If you can't do it properly, don't do it. takes away from a great explanation.
Tasks and activities are not Work Packages. Work Packages are made up of tasks/activities. Work Packages are deliverables, like Mech design drawings. Also, best practice is to develop an estimate from the bottom up, not top down. The goal of the WBS is to identify all of the scope of a project so that it can be monitored and controlled. That scope is then used to develop a schedule (activities), assign resources, and develop a budget.
This was great, thanks, I've been looking for "what is a design proposal engineering?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Biycarlett Astounded Builder - (should be on google have a look ) ? It is a good one of a kind product for discovering how to download thousands of business and project management templates minus the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my co-worker got cool success with it.

Not particularly agile, though.
I have over 20 years as a PM. You have managed to explain this topic Perfectly.
Thank you. The clearest explanation I've ever seen.
Thank you for putting it out with simplicity. This is probably going to stick with me for a long time. Well explained.
The explanation is so clear and concise!! WBS is definetly understood by me!
Excellent description of a WBS including the budgeting aspect. Thank you for it.
Great explanation of the WBS. Cheers!
I had to watch it twice. I spent the entire first time trying to figure out how they mirrored the video. LOL
Ya, is he writing mirrored?
same here :D
LOL
probably was recorded with a camera behind a glass and the image(video) was mirrored. Just my thought.
Will simply say thank you. Very good explanation. Make me fall in love with Project Management once again.
Thank you, young man for making life easier
I want a glass board like yours. It is awesome! Thanks
very clear explanation. I am captured by your blackboard... great tech
he writes backwards like a boss !
The video is mirrored. Check out his shirt pocket and watch. It's on the opposite side. Such a cool idea!
You should show us how would the Budget be created in the Wbs ? How did you estimate the budget ??

yt8019 definition of a Project is that it is unique. Are you sure that you like to plan a Project?
After the completion of first one the project will become a continuous operation /process with standard procedure, schedule, capacity of man, material, machine, market,plant
with pre determined wbs.
Time study, movement study, productivity etc can estimate for continuous program.
This man is a very nice professor i like all his videos, can we have his name ?
Its so comprehensive. Thank you Sir.
whats first, the chicken or the egg?
He made it look so easy..
amazing explanation
what is his name?
Thank you. Are you writing in reverse? How do you that?
Yes, exactly.
whatever it is, why bother??? Can hardly read a word!
What blackboard is that?
It's a transparent "whiteboard," and then the video is flipped.
Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth thanks :D. Very professional and great explanation of the topic.
This video was cool and all but how are the words he is writing not backwards.. Is he just good at writing backwards??
writing???? Man, that is hieroglyphics! I have seen doctors who wrote better. If you can't do it properly, don't do it. takes away from a great explanation.
I just want to know how he is writing on the back side of my monitor screen.
UPUPUP
Work Package is NOT a task. Work Package is the lowest level deliverable in the WBS. It's a noun and not a verb. Work Packages contain activities.
Then what's the difference between a product-oriented and a Task WBS? This for one is a Hybrid WBS
May I use this video in one of my training presentation course? I will give credit to you. Kindly revert pls.
Yes, you may.
Smashed dat thumbs up button.
