Organizing a project into sites

You can organize a project into sites based on your business needs. For example, you can organize a project in one of the following ways:

  • No sites at all. Everything is contained in a project, without any sites. This option is best for projects with a few assets and users that you can easily keep track of because it provides the greatest simplicity.

  • Sites based on geography. Group resources and users by locale, such as by city, building, or areas within a building. For example, you might set up a site for the equipment in a factory test lab.

  • Sites based on function. Group resources and users by functionality, either by machine functionality or by how they're used in your factory. For example, you might set up a site for all of the conveyor belts involved in moving an item from one side of the factory to the other.

  • Sites based on organization. Sites represent a specific organizational structure in the company or factory. For example, you might want a single site that includes resources and users assigned to the shipping department.
