How Cloud-based Software Makes Project Management Easier
Here at Verto we understand the demands project managers face every day. No matter what sector you work in and the projects you’re responsible for, you’re in a constant cycle of planning, delivery and reporting.
You’re managing risk, people, performance, time, change and budgets.
You’re expected to know what’s happening with a project at any given time.
And you’re expected to make sure everyone else does too.
Cloud-based project management software, like Verto Go and Verto Pro, help you do all this. Quickly and easily.
Instant Access
We provide and maintain Verto on our secure servers and you access it from the internet. This means you and everyone else involved in the project can have instant access to your project’s data. Whenever you need it and from wherever you are.
So even if you’re working round the clock and only have your mobile with you, you’ll always be in touch
Instant Messaging
Verto has an instant messaging tool so you can easily keep in touch with everyone involved in the project.
You can update the whole team at the same time so they always have the latest information.
And you can message people individually to let them know exactly what you need them to do.
Automatic Document Control
Because all your data is stored securely in one place, everyone will always get to see the latest version of any file. Verto even has an automated document control feature that takes care of this for you.

Gloucestershire CCG Background
The CCG is a clinically led membership organisation responsible for commissioning local NHS services to meet the needs of local people. These services include emergency care services, operations or treatments that can be planned in advance, community services and mental health services.
The organisation is placing greater emphasis on prevention, self-care and joining up services, community support and information across health and social care. Alternatives to hospital care are also being developed, including more care, treatment and support at home and in the local community – all of which are delivered under increasing financial constraints.
To achieve this transformation, the CCG is engaged in a portfolio of programmes and projects, working closely with our Providers. The portfolio is overseen by a central PMO team; with a particular focus on the QIPP agenda (our Providers also operate PMOs).
The CCG expects that by using a standard programme management approach, underpinned by an effective PMS, we are more likely to successfully deliver change by ensuring:
- Sufficient board-level support
- Strong leadership
- Realistic expectations of our capacity and ability to deliver change
- Sufficient focus on benefits
- A robust vision of the future (blueprint), well defined and clearly communicated
- Improved capability to change culture
- Good engagement by stakeholders/Providers
Scope
The PMS addresses the management of programmes and projects. It provides the framework for organising and managing resource and investment to deliver all the work required within defined scope, time and cost constraints.
The CCG has established an approach to programme and project management based on industry standard methodologies and terminology (e.g. PRINCE2, MSP).
