Project war rooms are a crucial tool in project management. They allow for a group or team to have a visual and collaborative space to plan, strategize, and track progress. Historically, war rooms have been physical rooms, where teams would gather to work on the project together. However, with the increased amounts of remote work arising, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the format of war rooms has changed. Virtual war rooms have become increasingly popular, allowing team members to work together from different locations and still access all the necessary information and tools. The challenge now becomes, “How do I provide that same data to the project team that we used to have in hard copy form in this room to the people no matter where they are on a real-time basis?”, as said IBM Project Manager Jerry Perone, PMP. Despite the change in format, the importance of war rooms remains unchanged. They provide teams with a structured environment to tackle complex projects, and the visual nature of war rooms facilitates better communication and collaboration. In the post-pandemic world, virtual war rooms are becoming a necessity for organizations to manage their projects effectively, regardless of location. | Project war rooms are a crucial tool in project management.

Abstract
Project war rooms are a crucial tool in project management. They allow for a group or team to have a visual and collaborative space to plan, strategize, and track progress. Historically, war rooms have been physical rooms, where teams would gather to work on the project together. However, with the increased amounts of remote work arising, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the format of war rooms has changed. Virtual war rooms have become increasingly popular, allowing team members to work together from different locations and still access all the necessary information and tools. The challenge now becomes, “How do I provide that same data to the project team that we used to have in hard copy form in this room to the people no matter where they are on a real-time basis?”, as said IBM Project Manager Jerry Perone, PMP. Despite the change in format, the importance of war rooms remains unchanged. They provide teams with a structured environment to tackle complex projects, and the visual nature of war rooms facilitates better communication and collaboration. In the post-pandemic world, virtual war rooms are becoming a necessity for organizations to manage their projects effectively, regardless of location.
