Work Breakdown Structure
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) above outlines all the necessary work for the Millennium Falcon to succeed in meeting requirements. Each division has their own systems and subsystem tasks that must be done for project completion.
Project Schedule
- Top Level Schedule
The top level schedule aligns with the WBS and outlines tasks to be done by each division as well as overall team tasks.

- Burn Down schedule
Burn down schedule chart display the total work remaining throughout the semester. As we progress, the percentage of work remaining will decrease.
System Resource Reports
Project Cost Estimate
The cost estimate comes from the cost report done within system resource reports and is inexpensive. Most of our cost going to renewing existing parts and adding modifying parts (e.g. servos). The costs are as follows:
Projection Allocation: $150.00
Total Margin: $33.40
Total Expected Cost: $167.00
Contingency: $16.40
