Ensure security and flexibility through robust role-based access controls

Contract Guardian allows the creation of unlimited contract management roles, departments, groups and even organizations.

A role can be given a series of permissions like add contract, change contract, etc. A group can have one or more roles. A user can be a member of one or more groups. Therefore, a user gains the permissions based on the groups that they are a member.

Roles can be created and managed by grouping together access privileges and administrative capabilities that meet the access needs of users in a group. Often, roles are based on job responsibilities.  When a contract manager, for example, signs on as a new user, the person is assigned the appropriate role that automatically allows access to all of the designation services needed to perform the job. It is an easy, efficient way to set access privileges for users.  It also provides an efficient mechanism for altering access privileges for common groups of users in the future.

The following are suggestions for your contract management role permissions and names. The contract role descriptions shown below are just examples.  You can create an infinite number or roles and associated permission to match your organizations needs and naming conventions.

Role Examples

  • Administrator
  • Contract Manager
  • Contract Author
  • Contract Reader
