Manage Project Repository

Linarc provides a cloud-based file repository for each managed project, enabling project managers to store and share a large volume of documents, plans, drawings, photos, presentations, and various other files. Each project-specific file storage drive contains a predefined folder structure with folders and subfolders. The project managers can alter the folder structure at the project level as required.

• The folder tree structure simplifies the organization of files under different categories in folders and sub-folders.
• The project documents, like RFIs, Submittals, and change orders, get auto-saved in the respective folders once they are closed, approved, and published.
• The project repository aids in compiling relevant documents, images, videos, and other files while generating the project close-out document.

Company-level Folder Template

• The company admin can manage a folder template at the company level. 
• For every new project added to Linarc, a project-level repository gets created with the default folder structure following the template.
• The folder template can be altered at any time to add or remove folders and subfolders. 
• Any changes made to the company-level folder template take effect only on the new projects created after that time. The existing projects' folder structure is unaffected by the changes.
