Product Breakdown StructureIn project management, a product breakdown structure (PBS) is an exhaustive, hierarchical tree structure of components that make up a project deliverable, arranged in whole-part relationship. A PBS can help clarify what is to be delivered by the project and can help build a work breakdown structure. E.g. PBS of a computer: - Main unit
- Housing
- Motherboard
- FDD
- HDD
- Video card
- Sound card
- Network card
- LPT port card
- Monitor
- CRT
- Housing
- Electronic components
- Mouse
- Keyboard
The PRINCE2 project management method mandates the use of product based planning, part of which is developing a product breakdown structure. See also
