Spring 2008
Statement Of Work (SOW)
• A statement of work (SOW) is a document used in the Project Development Life Cycle. Certain areas that need to be addressed are as follows:– Scope of Work, Describes the work to be done in detail
and specifies the hardware and software involved and the exact nature of the work to be done.
– Location of Work, Describes where the work is to be performed. Specifies location of hardware and software and where people will meet to perform the work.
– Period of Performance, This specifies the allowable time for projects, such as start and finish times.
– Deliverables Schedule, This part list the specific deliverables, describing what and when it is due.
– Who is responsible for what.
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
• The WBS is the hierarchical list of the project's phases, tasks and milestones – Phase: A group of related tasks that completes a major step in a
project.– Task: An activity that has a beginning and an end. Project plans
are made up of tasks.– Milestone: A reference point marking a major event in a project
and used to monitor the project's progress. • Scope: The combination of all project goals and tasks, and
the work required to accomplish them.– The scope translates into the timeline and budget.
• Budget: The estimated cost of a project.• http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
• This is what we want Deliverables based WBS• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

1.1 Antenna DesignTheorical Design 5%Antenna Construction 10%Antenna testing 5%
1. Transmiter Antenna Packaging 3%Antenna Design 25% Monitoring 2%
1. Transmiter Modulator Design 25% 1.2 Modulator DesignAudio interface Module 10%
Power Amplifier Design 50% Mixer Module 10%Output Stage Module 5%
1.3 Power Amplifier Design
This is just an example, you can customize as you like.
In Favorites Gantt Charts, double-click the little square and enter:
• A new Phases with:
•Name
•Category
•And ID
Make sure to select phase
The first phase has been created
In Favorites Gantt Charts, double-click the little square and enter:
•The Tasks with:
•Names
•Category
•And ID
•Duration
Make sure to select task
The first task has been entered
This is how it would look after all tasks for the first phase have been entered
To indicate task’s dependencies drag from the end of one task to the beginning of the next one
Click here to auto-schedule
This is how it would look like
Red Color indicates the Critical Path

1.3 Power Amplifier Design
Project with two phases included
It is a coincidence that the two phases have same duration
Click to see the PERT
The zoom commands were used to fit the chart in the window
On planning, Resource assignment, double click the little square to enter the resources and their costs
Do the same for non labor resources
Use Equipment for Space
You can add the cost of components as “material”
Right click on the tasks and select assignment to assign resources to the tasks
Right click on the tasks and select assignment to assign resources to the tasks.
Enter estimated hours in Estimate
As components were entered with a rate of $100, 1.5 will represent $150
The yellow color indicates that the task is low in resources, more hours or space or equipment, etc are needed
If you need to add a new task or phase in between tasks or phases, right click the square and select insert task
There will be a problem if you click schedule again
As the Audio Interface Module and the Mixer Module were using the same resources, they were converted to sequential.
You would need to add more resources to keep the tasks in parallel
The zoom commands were used to fit the chart in the window
•Another Low Frequency Engineer was included
•Two more Lab Spaces were included
•It was not necessary increase the project duration
Click on controlling and then Revise Schedule to see the budget

The task bar changes color to reflect status (Red / Blue – Not Started)(Purple – Started)(Grey – Progress completed)The task name changes color to reflect status (Red – Not Started)(Purple – Started)(Green – Completed)

If the task is completed enter 0 in Estimate
Updating The Project Status
We reduced 20 hours but because of the weekend it appears to be a longer time
