Team & roles
Show subs what they need. Hide what they don't.
Per-role permissions. Sub-portal for outside crews. New hires get the right access from day one.
- Roles built-in
- Admin / PM / Worker
- Sub-portal
- Yes
- Overrides
- Per-user
Custom permission groups too
Subs see their work, nothing else
Turn single pages or actions on or off
Roles that make sense
Three roles. Custom groups when you need them.
Admins see everything. PMs run projects. Workers log work in the field. Need something in between? Build a custom permission group and pick the pages and actions it gets. Subs and clients use their own portals.
- Three defaults cover most contractors
- Custom permission groups for edge cases
- Change a user's role any time
Subs see only their work
Sub-portal: tight by default.
Subs see only the tasks they're assigned, the schedule for their phase, and the photos and docs that touch their work. No financials, no other subs' work.
- Auto-hides financials and other subs
- Shows only their tasks + schedule
- Can comment on their own tasks
Onboarding
New hire? Right access in one click.
Invite by email, pick a role, hit send. They land on the right view with the right permissions. No back-and-forth with IT.
- Invite by email, role pre-selected
- Onboard tour matches the role
- Project assignments included in the invite
Permission overrides
Adjust one person's access.
Sometimes someone needs one page or action their role doesn't include. Overrides turn individual pages and actions on or off for one person without changing their role.
- Per-user page and action overrides
- Their base role stays the same
- Set by admins only
Without Buildficient
You hire a super in March. He sees everything. Every project, every dollar, every contract. Two weeks in he forwards a margin sheet to a sub by accident. Now you're explaining.
With Buildficient
Hire the same super, invite with the Worker role pre-selected. He lands on his projects, can log work, can't see margins. No accidental forwards. Productive by lunch.
Built especially for
Project Managers
PMs care most about who sees what. Set roles once, stop thinking about access.
