	VWR's are best suited for long-term projects, as they require a lot of resources to setup and utilize. However, if the VWR is already setup and usable, a project of any type or size can benefit from using the VWR. There is a limited amount of space, so if multiple project teams are participating in a project, it is recommended to divide the teams into their own respective war rooms. When the teams then meet in the VWRs, any relevant project updates are presented first. Then, the teams will discuss the next steps in order to progress the project forward. Finally, the teams have time to work on the different tasks that might need input from various team members, or even receive feedback from colleagues on their work. The rooms are not limited to this structure, and all projects tend to have their own structure which fits their needs best.

	This article is produced as a part of the course 42433 – Advanced Engineering Project, Program, and Portfolio Management E22 at the Danish Technical University (DTU). The article builds on some groupwork ~~techniques~~ and collaboration requirements which were mentioned throughout ~~both~~ the PMI standards (A guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK guide), 7th Edition (2021)) and the British Standards ("Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2" 6th Edition (2017))		This article is produced as a part of the course 42433 – Advanced Engineering Project, Program, and Portfolio Management E22 at the Danish Technical University (DTU). The article builds on some groupwork principles and collaboration requirements which were mentioned throughout the PMI standards (A guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK guide), 7th Edition (2021)) and the British Standards ("Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2" 6th Edition (2017)). The PMI Standard highlights both the importance of having a 'collaborative project team environment' (page 28), and also the necessity to 'maintain project team engagement.' From the British Standards, page 179 outlines that 'providing direction and control over the life of the project' is critical for properly directing a project. As VWRs are able to provide the tools and space to achieve these three points, VWRs are an effective tool in Project, Program, and Portfolio Management.
