Every TruBuild user belongs to an organization. The organization owns projects, packages, members, feature entitlements, and enterprise configuration. For procurement teams, the most important setup decision is not visual branding. It is access design: who can administer the account, who can lead a project, who can work on commercial evaluation, who can work on technical evaluation, and who can only review.

1. Create your organization

1

Open TruBuild

Go to app.trubuild.io or the dedicated regional URL provided for your organization.
2

Sign in with your corporate identity

Use your corporate email. Enterprise workspaces may use SSO depending on your organization’s configuration.
3

Create or join the organization

If your organization already exists, ask an owner or admin to invite you. If you are the first account owner, create the organization using the legal or business-unit name used in procurement reporting.

2. Assign organization administrators

Use organization roles sparingly:
RoleAssign toNotes
ownerAccount owner or procurement systems ownerKeep this group small
adminProcurement administrator or IT adminUse for day-to-day member and workspace setup
memberEveryone elseProject and package roles grant actual tender access
Do not use organization ownership as a shortcut for tender access. Most evaluators should be member at organization level and scoped through project or package roles.

3. Confirm feature entitlements

Feature access is granted at organization level. Your administrator can confirm which modules are enabled:
Feature slugModule
commercial_evalCommercial evaluation
technical_evalTechnical evaluation
tender_queriesTender query management
vendor_dbVendor database
ai_chatAI chat
If a page is missing for users who have project/package access, check feature entitlements first.

4. Invite the project team

For the first tender rollout, invite a small cross-functional group:
PersonOrganization roleProject or package role
Procurement managermemberproject_lead
Package buyermemberpackage_lead
Commercial lead / QSmembercommercial_team or commercial_lead
Technical lead / discipline evaluatormembertechnical_team or technical_lead
Owner reviewermemberproject_viewer or package_viewer
External advisormemberPackage-scoped role only
See Roles & permissions for the full model.

5. Create the first project

Create a real project that represents a tender program, development, or capital project. Set:
  • Project name
  • Country
  • Initial project lead
  • Viewer access for owner-side reviewers if required
Then create at least one package with:
  • Package name
  • Currency
  • Technical/commercial weighting
  • At least two contractors

6. Prepare SSO and regional controls

Enterprise workspaces may include:
  • SAML or OIDC single sign-on
  • Domain-based provisioning
  • Region-specific URLs
  • Dedicated infrastructure
  • Feature entitlements by organization
Coordinate these with TruBuild support and your internal system owner before a large rollout.

Checklist

  • Owner and admin users are confirmed.
  • Feature entitlements are correct.
  • SSO or corporate login path is tested if applicable.
  • Project lead is assigned.
  • Owner reviewers have viewer access where needed.
  • At least one real package is created.
  • Package currency is correct.
  • Technical/commercial weighting matches the approved tender strategy.
  • Contractor list is complete enough to begin uploads.
  • Commercial and technical teams are scoped correctly.
