Spring 2018 3DoT Hexy: Work Breakdown Structure

By: Eduardo De La Cruz (Project Manager and Manufacturing Engineer)

Approved by: Miguel Garcia (Quality Assurance)

Introduction

Below is the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for our project. The diagram is broken down into task each division engineer will be responsible for in the production of the final product. These assignments are based of the task matrix we developed as a class. Engineers can use this diagram as a reference for what they need to do. For a more detailed explanation of what each task consists of, consult the task matrix.
