Team Collaboration
Invite team members, assign roles, and collaborate on bids together.
Team Collaboration
Bid Refinery supports multi-user organisations. You can invite colleagues, assign roles, and work on the same project simultaneously.
Inviting team members
- Go to Settings > Team Members
- Click Invite Member
- Enter their email address and select a role
- They receive an email invitation and can join immediately
Roles and permissions
| Role | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full access, billing management, delete organisation |
| Admin | Manage members, all project actions |
| Editor | Create/edit projects, generate drafts, export |
| Reviewer | View and comment on drafts, approve/reject |
| Viewer | Read-only access to projects and drafts |
Project-level access
By default all team members can access all projects. For sensitive bids, you can restrict a project to specific members from Project Settings > Access.
Reviewing and approving drafts
The Review workflow allows Editors to submit drafts for Reviewer approval before export:
- Editor clicks Submit for Review on any draft
- Reviewers receive an email notification
- Reviewer can Approve, Request Changes, or leave inline comments
- Once approved, the draft can be exported
Real-time collaboration
Multiple editors can work in the same draft simultaneously. Changes sync within a few seconds. The last writer wins on per-section saves.
Removing members
Go to Settings > Team Members, click the three-dot menu on any member, and select Remove. Their access is revoked immediately. Their past contributions remain.
