Case Study – Work breakdown structure

Case Study:
Your client is an IT company specializing in devices for people with disabilities. Based in the US,
it employs 25 people and sells its products mainly in North America. During its first 5-years, the
company has experienced rapid growth, but last year’s financials have shown some decline in
sales. The sales department has recently identified an opportunity for entry into the Chinese
and Latin-American markets. As a result, the management team has approved a set of strategic
projects to enable that purpose.
One of the projects being launched is the development of a multi-language website platform to
enable online purchases of the company products. With that purpose, your team has been
hired to manage the project. You have been asked to submit a project plan in the next few
weeks that is efficient (you were told by a Vice President that this project needs to be done
‘yesterday’) and for the smallest budget possible. The management team has approved up to
$45K for the project, but you have been asked to bring it in under budget if possible. Your team
will gather the necessary information to define a robust project plan.
