Bibliography

The present document "Project breakdown structures" is part of a collection of space standards belonging to the management branch. In order to create the reference system for project management necessary for implementation of a project and ensure consistency, the project shall be broken down into a unique, orderly and exhaustive manner, to allow unambiguous identification of the associated products and models, as well as the tasks and resources necessary. The aim of this space standard is to define the principles to be respected for setting up, using and adapting the breakdown structures and implementing them into a project.
