Work description
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
The CHORIST work breakdown structure includes several sub-projects (SP):
- a SP focused on alert system (SP2); including communications from the citizens
- a SP focused on communications to the citizens (SP3)
- a SP focused on communications on the crisis field (SP4).
These are completed with transversal sub-projects:
- a SP focused on engineering support for developments (SP1);
- a SP focused on integration and validation (SP5);
- a SP dedicated to project management, standardization, dissemination, impact & exploitation (SP0).
This makes a total of 6 sub-projects.

WBS level 1: Sub Projects
The following table presents the SPs with a short description.
| SP | Title | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SP0 | Management, standardisation, dissemination, impacts & exploitation | Includes project management and work coordination, management of knowledge, standard-related and dissemination activities, impact analysis, perspective assessment and results exploitation preparation. |
| SP1 | Users inputs and overall engineering | Supporting SP to provide user inputs/guidance, requirements, system engineering, overall vision and coordination of SP developments. |
| SP2 | Risk assessment report systems | Addresses alert systems, risk awareness, risk assessment and training for risk response preparation. Development and test of related ICT-based systems. |
| SP3 | "Communication to the citizen" system | Addresses the design of messages to the citizens, as part of the crisis response, including human and cultural issues. Definition, development and test of a "communication to the citizen system" implementing message design, dispatching, formatting and carrying through selected communication channels. |
| SP4 | Emergency telecommunications systems on crisis site | Definition, development and test of emergency field telecommunication systems with special focus on emergency network deployment capability and interoperability. |
| SP5 | Integration, demonstration, assessment and recommendations | Integration of the ERME system technologies developed in the other SPs and validation through significant field trials. Demontration assessment and recommendations will be proposed for future work. |
