I would like to propose further refinement to the current ACC project permissions. Consultants should be given permissions controls over their own Cloud Central Models, specifically who may access, modify and download the Cloud Central Model.
Presently, the project creator has complete control over all project files and folders. As an engineering consultant, this means that we do not have control of our cloud central model and its usage unless restrictions are implemented by the project creator, which may or may not align with our companies' model sharing standards. Therefore, the cloud central model hosted within the main project folder could be live linked to, modified or downloaded by any other party within the project without our permission.
As a consultant this removes our control over what information is passed along to other firms as they may live link even if we ask them not to. Despite the ability to create packages through the Design Collaboration module in ACC, nothing prevents our central model from being accessed, modified, downloaded or live linked to.
If ACC could provide permissions controls for each individual consultant that allows them to decide what others outside of their company can access this would greatly ease our discomfort with switching to ACC fully.
