The object breakdown structure (OBS) is a supplementary planning aid to the project breakdown structure (WBS).

Aim / purpose

  1. Creation of a common view of the object to be processed in the course of a project
  2. Essential basis for project structure planning

Procedural steps

  1. Listing of objects
  2. Structure of the parts, assemblies and subsystems of the object system according to how they belong together in list form or tree structure (parts list, component list, component list, recipe, modules, functional units, etc.).
  3. The object structure plan is either available at the start of the project (order processing project) or represents an essential part of the content processing of the project (preliminary project, feasibility study, etc.).
