ConstructMind uses a two-tier role model: organisation-level roles control what a user can do across the platform, and project-level roles control what they can do within a specific project.
Organisation-Level Roles
Every user belongs to an organisation and is assigned one of the following three roles:
Org Admin
Best for: System administrator or IT owner
Create and archive projects, manage all users, configure organisation settings, view all projects in the organisation.
Org Manager
Best for: Senior PMs overseeing multiple projects
Create projects (auto-assigned as Project Owner), invite and manage org users, view all projects.
Org Member
Best for: Planners, engineers, contributors
Work within projects they are assigned to. Cannot create projects. Access limited to their assigned projects only.
Important
Org Members cannot create projects, nor can they request project creation. Only Org Admins and Org Managers have project creation rights.
Project-Level Roles
Within each project, users hold a project-level role that may differ across projects. A user might be a Lead Planner on one project and a Contributor on another.
Project Owner
Best for: Accountable schedule owner
Full workflow access (Generate, Review, Assess), approves assumptions, commits the schedule, unlocks and downloads XER export, manages project team.
Lead Planner
Best for: Primary scheduler
Full workflow access, can approve assumptions. Cannot commit the schedule for final export.
Contributor
Best for: Document controllers, engineers
Upload project documents. Read-only access to schedule outputs and Basis of Schedule. Cannot run or modify workflows.
Read Only
Best for: Clients, stakeholders
View project documents, schedule outputs, and Basis of Schedule. No upload, edit, or workflow access.

External Users
External users are invited directly to a project by the Project Owner. They do not hold an organisation account and cannot see any other projects or organisation settings. External users are automatically assigned the Read Only role and cannot be elevated to any other project role.
