Case Study: University of Pittsburgh improves construction project management with VPO

VPO Creates a Workspace for University of Pittsburgh

The University of Pittsburgh, managing a $100 million capital projects budget, needed a construction project management solution that would integrate with its existing Microsoft 365 suite. The challenge was to find a customizable and scalable platform that could handle a diverse portfolio of projects without the high cost and unnecessary features of larger, out-of-the-box products.

The university implemented the VPO Construction Project Management platform, which was customized to focus on administrative reporting and provide real-time dashboard access to project information. As a result, VPO helped formalize the project portfolio, reduce delays, and support data-driven decision-making for workload management across all university projects.
