Problems to be solved included:
-
Manage collaboration between several industrial partners having their own processes, methods and approaches.
-
Generate the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Work Packages Descriptions (WPD) for the project.
Modeling benefits were:
-
Convergence on a set of generic processes to be applied together with associated standard document types: specifications, justification, design, validation… documents.
-
Quick production of WBS from the Product Breakdown Structure (PBS) (e.g. we issued a PBS with ~100 items and got a WBS with more than 100 Work Packages and 1000 documents and items) as a basis for cost analysis and planning.
-
An objective and neutral support for project plan enabling more efficient collaboration.
