Example:
Work Breakdown Structure
Alliant has decided to self perform the electrical work for their new warehouse
expansion of 100,000sq.ft, of which 12,500sq.ft is office space. The warehouse space
allows 42.65ft and 53.31ft of clearance to the bottom of the exposed roof structure
above. The project is located 20miles from Alliant office in Madison, Wisconsin. The
site is large with adequate access and plenty of surrounding space for lay down area.
Develop what your team can agree is an appropriate Work Breakdown Structure
(WBS) of approximately 10-20 activities for the entire project. Expand the electrical
work node to show more details of electrical construction activities. Be prepared to
report back to the class of what your WBS is.

1. Manageable
Specific authority and responsibility can be
assigned
2. Independent
With minimum interfacing or dependence on
other elements

Cost Code and Cost Control
Prof Awad S. Hanna 19
Cost Accounting Reports
Cost report intervals are a function of the
project size, nature of the work, and the
type of contract involved.
There must be a balance between the
cost of generating the reports and the
value of the management information
received.
