Before getting started with Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) calculations, it’s important to set up your team correctly in the platform. In this section, you’ll learn:

1. How to build an effective team structure in M2030
2. The different types of user roles available
3. How to add and remove users
4. How to add existing users to a new facility

Why team structure matters

As you may know, calculating PCFs requires collaboration across departments. Giving the right people the right access in Manufacture 2030 helps you:

• Gather emissions data more efficiently
• Collaborate on reduction projects effectively
• Share insights across your organization
• Maintain data security and accountability

Understanding user roles

Within your license, you can invite as many colleagues to collaborate on the platform as you see fit. There are two types of roles you can assign them:

Admins

People you give admin status gain access to:

• Manage team access and permissions
• Add or remove team members
• Handle license renewals
• All member capabilities (described below)

Tip: Start with a small admin team (2-3 people) to maintain clear oversight of platform access. 

Members

People you assign with member status can:

• Enter and edit facility data
• Access platform resources and tools

Members will need to be assigned to a specific facility or group of facilities by an admin before they can make edits.

Building your team on Manufacture 2030

Add new team members

1. Go to account settings
2. Select add colleagues in the side menu
3. Click the add colleagues button
4. Enter their full name and work email 
5. Click send invite
6. Your colleague(s) will be sent an email with the invite, where they can then set their password. If the email doesn’t arrive within 10 minutes, have them check their spam or junk folder before contacting our support team.

Note: Invites will expire after five days. Notify colleagues internally once email invites have been sent. You can resend the invite on the add colleagues page.

Manage and remove members 

1. To manage a member's role, click on the edit symbol next to their username.
2. To remove a member from the account, click the delete icon next to the member. 

Note: If you cannot see the edit symbol then you do not have the correct permissions. Contact your admin user to get your account updated. 

Add existing users to a new facility
