17. Adding your project as the first line to your Plan.
18. Add in the major deliverables under your project as initiate, planning, execute, monitor/control, and close.
19. Under Initiate, add in one (1) sub-deliverable
20. Under Planning, add in at least five (5) sub-deliverables
21. Under Execution, add in the deliverables based on your prior discussion post. Expand on them if applicable so that you have at least five (5) sub-deliverables under Execution.
22. Under each of your sub-deliverables, add at least two activities per deliverable, which is the action of the work needing to be completed.
23. At this time, you do not need to add sub-deliverables for the monitor/control and close deliverables.
24. Next add in dependencies for all the activities (note you only have to add these into any activity that doesnt have sub-activities). When you do this, create at least two of your deliverables to be completed in parallel. Be sure all activities except the first have a predecessor and all have a successor. You can check this by making sure all work packages have an arrow going into and out of them. Change the color of the parallel activities to the color purple to make them standout from other activities.
25. Next update your durations so that your project is four months long. If your actual project was more/less, just adjust for the purpose of the assignment so your total project is exactly four months long (120 days).
26. Finally, take a screen snip of your WBS and of the Gantt chart created. Add these within a word document and submit them to your instructor for grading. Note be sure the WBS/Gantt chart is fully expanded and the duration and start dates are viewable. You may need to take multiple screen shots if needed.
