It helps construction managers, program leaders, and project teams stay aligned across projects by bringing communication, documents, and decisions into one place. At the portfolio level, VPO acts as a command center for capital programs, providing visibility into project status, risks, and outstanding decisions. This allows leadership to quickly understand where attention is needed without manually gathering updates from multiple sources. The platform supports structured workflows for RFIs, submittals, document control, and approvals, ensuring that communication is captured and decisions are traceable. This improves accountability, reduces version confusion, and creates a complete audit trail across projects. VPO is designed to scale with growing capital programs and support complex environments with multiple stakeholders and high project volumes. It can be deployed in weeks, not months, allowing teams to begin standardizing workflows and improving visibility without long implementation cycles. The platform has supported more than 10,000 projects and over $50B in capital programs worldwide. For organizations that have outgrown spreadsheets and disconnected systems, VPO provides a more structured, transparent, and scalable approach to managing capital projects. With over 42 years of experience supporting capital programs, VPO offers a practical, proven approach to improving collaboration, visibility, and control across construction projects. VPO helps teams keep projects on track and everyone working from the same information. > > Verdict: Rated **4.2/5** by 63 users.

I think this section is more cumbersome to use. ----- ### "Well done Simplex. Great tool to manage small to large projects. Implementation can be customized." — 5.0/5 > **Brian** | *9 December 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The best construction management software I have used. It is customizable and offers time savings to log and automate the processes on a project. VPO uses SharePoint, a Microsoft Product as the strong backbone of this tool. The Simplex Company is very personable and great to work with. > > **Cons**: The risk to start the process and to use it for the first month. The best reward was it works great. > > Saving time by using VPO. The automation is great. The system automatically logs the submittals, RFI, Etc is taking the risk off of our teams to keep eyes out for the importance instead of emailing, downloading, logging and resending out these items. The risk of sitting on an important document. ----- ### "Visual" — 4.0/5 > **Joe** | *29 August 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has all the features that we need for project management, ie submittals, purchase orders, change orders, etc > > **Cons**: It's not easy on the eyes. Gray scale for the screen isn't as easy to read as black, just seems like the graphics on the screen could be better. We came from early 2000's version of Primavera Expedition, and the overall user interface of Expedition was better. ----- ### "Product Review" — 5.0/5 > **Jared** | *14 September 2023* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like the most about VPO is that it is easy to use. The processing steps are simple. Some products can be cumbersome and may have a lot of steps. Staff and the support. > > **Cons**: The base model comes out very basic. As it competes with other products and fancy bells and whistles, it may need an update. I've used this program probably since the early inception, so I know why its that way. Its the most common comment I'd hear. > > My overall experience has been great. ----- ### "VPO for Highway Construction Team" — 5.0/5 > **Brian** | *16 October 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is built to be very user friendly and is customizable to fit your company and/or client needs. > > **Cons**: Using the SharePoint app on an iPhone can sometimes be slow but eventually all of the data you need is at your fingertips. > > The biggest benefit of using VPO is organization. Our team is able to look back and find anything we had done in the past. It has also saved us time by using the customized forms VPO has tailored for us to meet our clients needs. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/2470/virtual-project-office?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/2470/virtual-project-office) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
