Gooroo Planner doesn’t take sides. It lays out the pressures (and lack of pressures) just as it finds them, so that managers and clinicians can take decisions and set priorities in the light of the best available evidence.

But Gooroo Planner does more than give you a common language – it builds collaboration into the planning process so you can share your modelling with anyone, and control how it is used according to the situation.

So if you are doing collaborative work with close colleagues, you can give everyone permission to edit the master copy, and Gooroo Planner keeps an audit trail of changes so that everyone can see their effect on the bottom line. If you are sharing more widely, then you might give people permission to make their own local copies of the modelling and work on those instead. Or if you are sharing with a broader audience for information only, you can just let people look at the modelling but nothing more.
