Triark Cloud allows you to use templates when creating new projects. This saves time and ensures consistency across all projects.

Templates help you:

  • Predefine folder structures for document management
  • Set up Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) for project planning
  • Apply zone structures for technical or location-based organization

All templates are user-defined in the standards. This means your company decides the structure, naming, and content of the templates to match your internal processes.

πŸ“¦ What Types of Templates Are Available?

Template Type
Purpose
Folder Template
Predefined document folder structure (e.g., Drawings, Instructions, Calculations). Managed in standards by your team.
WBS Template
Standardized project phases and deliverables for planning and reporting. Created and maintained by your company.
Zone Structure
Technical zones or location-based divisions (e.g., Building A, Floor 1, Electrical Systems). Defined by your team in the standards.

πŸ› οΈ Example Use Case: Engineering Project Templates

An engineering company uses templates to:

  • Ensure every customer project starts with the same folder structure for documentation
  • Apply a WBS Template to divide the project into phases like Design, Production, Delivery
  • Use Zone Structures to define building zones for installation tracking

Because the templates are user-defined in the standards, the company can adapt them to match internal best practices.
