Role responsibilities
CDE Configuration & Administration
- Configure and administer Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) as the primary CDE and oversee the aligned interface/integration with other CDEs.
Establish and maintain:
- Role‑based access, permissions, and access groups (organisation, package, discipline, functional role).
- Folder structures and information container hierarchies aligned to the BEP, work breakdown structure (WBS), and package strategy.
- Review, approval, and transmittal workflows, including defined SLAs and escalation paths.
- Metadata schemas, including required fields, validation rules, status/suitability codes, and classification fields where applicable.
- Manage user onboarding and offboarding, routine permission reviews, and coordination with IT, Information Security, and Document Control teams.
Standards Implementation (Naming, Coding, Revision Control)
- Implement and enforce the project’s information naming, coding, and revision standards as defined in the BEP.
Ensure consistent application of:
- Information container naming rules for models, drawings, documents, schedules, and registers.
- Revision and supersedence conventions.
- Status, suitability, and “issued‑for” purpose controls (review, approval, construction, as‑built).
- Maintain controlled templates, guidance notes, and “golden example” files within the CDE.
- Enforce standards through system rules wherever possible (mandatory metadata fields, workflow gates, and validation checks).
Issuance Governance & Auditability
Ensure all formal information issuances (design, procurement, construction, as‑built) are executed through the CDE with:
- Correct statuses, approvals, and supporting evidence.
- Clear “issued for” purpose and traceable distribution lists.
- Complete audit trails and immutable records where required.
- Coordinate with discipline leads and document control to ensure issuance packs are complete, correctly structured, and properly archived.
Monitoring, Compliance Checks & CDE Housekeeping
- Monitor overall CDE health and usage, identifying adoption issues, non‑compliant submissions, late approvals, or process failures.
Conduct regular compliance checks, including:
- Naming, coding, and revision compliance against the BEP.
- Mandatory metadata completeness.
- Correct use of workflows and approvals.
- Permissions integrity and segregation by package or party.
Carry out ongoing CDE housekeeping:
- Archiving and clean‑up aligned to WIP / Shared / Published / Archive states.
- Identification and control of redundant or duplicate content.
- Scheduled permission reviews and access attestations.
- Maintain an exceptions log and drive corrective actions through to closure.
Reporting & Dashboards
Support the production of CDE‑based reports and dashboards in collaboration with the Information / Reporting Analyst, including:
- Submission and approval cycle times.
- Rejection and return rates.
- Compliance trends (naming, metadata, workflow adherence).
- Information volumes and throughput by package, discipline, or supplier.
- Provide data definitions and ensure consistency of master data (package IDs, discipline codes, status codes).
Stakeholder Enablement & Support
- Deliver CDE inductions and “how we issue information” clinics for designers, contractors, and suppliers.
- Act as first‑line support for CDE process issues and coordinate escalation of technical platform issues to vendors or internal IT.
- Chair or support information management and CDE working sessions to resolve recurring compliance, process, or adoption issues.

- High attention to detail and comfort working with structured information and rules.
- Clear communicator able to translate standards into practical, usable guidance.
- Proactive problem‑solver who identifies risks early and drives corrective action.
