Each ProjectWise project can have a mix of internal and external project participants.

Internal participants are referred to as team members and are typically people who belong to your organization. If this project is a joint venture between two or more organizations, you can add people from your organization as well as other organizations to the internal participants list. Internal participants (team members) are added to the ProjectWise project through the Project Team Management Portal (click Manage on the Team Members tile).

External participants are the people you need to collaborate with who belong to one or more external organization (for example: clients, partners, vendors, subcontractors). External participants are added to the ProjectWise project through the Supply Chain Portal (click Manage on the External Organizations tile).

The rest of this document describes how to invite, accept, and manage users through the Supply Chain Portal.
