What is a work package?

Work package — is the smallest manageable unit of work in a project that can be planned, executed, and controlled.

It represents a specific set of tasks or actions, united by a common goal, which can be assigned to a single performer or team.

Features of a work package:

• Clearly defined boundaries and outcomes.
• Ability to estimate time, cost, and resources.
• Used for detailing the project plan and controlling execution.

For example, in a construction project, a work package could be "Installation of electrical wiring on the second floor" — with specific tasks, deadlines, and responsible persons.
