BIMcollab offers a user structure that is designed to enhance collaboration and project management. User access and permissions can be managed by space function, as well as project and project phase levels.

Space level roles

​
BIMcollab roles are organized into distinct levels based on their scope of actions:

These roles determine a user's administrative access to the entire BIMcollab space. They apply to all solutions included in your subscription. Which users will have access to which solutions are managed by assigning a required licenses (Nexus, twin and Zoom).

At the project level, a team member has access to issues and documents, but they do not have access to documents at the phase level (unless they are also a part of a project phase team). Since this role is specific to the project, a user can hold different team member roles for each project in which they participate.

Below, we can see the project team roles and their permissions on the project level:

General permissions define what users are allowed to manage within the overall project settings, such as general project settings, team members, managing IDS specifications, and working with models in the WebViewer.

Document permissions determine what actions users can perform in document management.

Issue management permissions control how users interact with issues, as well as permissions for issue approval, import/export, deleting issues and setting issue properties.

In the CDE, projects can be managed at both the project and project phase levels. When working at the phase level, users are added to Phase Teams and assigned a specific user role within that phase.

These roles are custom-defined by the space administrator, who also assigns User Rights to each role. These rights determine what actions users can perform and what data they can access within each phase, ensuring that team members only see and do what’s relevant to their responsibilities.
