Creating a Project¶
Who can do this¶
Administrator accounts.
Where to find it¶
Tenant workspace: Projects → New Project.
Before you begin¶
Have ready:
- Project name and, optionally, a project number/code.
- The likely contract type (JCT, NEC3, NEC4, FIDIC, Bespoke, or Other) and type of work (New Build, Refurbishment, Fitout, Infrastructure, Maintenance, or Other).
- An estimated contract value, if known.
- Expected start and completion dates.
How to create a project¶
- Select New Project.
- Enter the Project Name (required).
- Optionally enter a Project Number / Code.
- Choose a Contract Type and Type of Work from the dropdowns, if known.
- Enter a Contract Value, if known.
- Choose a Status — Active, On Hold, Completed, or Cancelled (defaults to Active).
- Enter Start Date and Completion Date, if known.
- Add a short Description.
- Select Create Project.
Only the project name is required — everything else can be added or changed later.
What happens after you save¶
- The project appears in your project list with the status you chose.
- A project workspace is created with all the standard sections (Overview, Contracts, Commercial, Variations, Notices, Programme, Delay & EOT, Risk Register, RFIs, Meetings, QA Reports, Snagging, Site Reports, Delivery Documents, Closeout, Documents, Calendar, and Adjudication if enabled).
- The project appears in relevant dashboard tiles (Active Projects) for users in your organisation.
Common mistakes to avoid¶
- Skipping the project code if your organisation relies on codes to tell similar project names apart in lists and documents.
- Setting a completion date earlier than the start date — check both dates before saving.
What to do next¶
- Upload the contract.
- Review Project Navigation to see the full workspace.
