terminal element

In project management, a terminal element is the lowest element (activity or deliverable) in a work breakdown structure; it is not further subdivided. Terminal elements are the items that are estimated in terms of resource requirements, budget and duration, linked by dependencies and scheduled. A terminal element is sometimes called a work package, although the two terms are not synonymous. See also:
