Add Discipline Files to a New Project Model

Procore Model Manager - Beta Access & Feedback

The Model Manager (Beta) features and documentation are subject to change without notice. Please be aware that this content is restricted to beta participants and requires a direct link to access.

  • To learn about the beta program, see the Beta Participant Guide.

  • To access the beta and provide feedback Show/Hide Details

    • How to Access: Participating companies must sign the Procore Beta Agreement. Once signed, your Procore Administrator coordinates with your Procore point of contact to enable Model Manager (Beta) on specific Procore projects.

    • How to Provide Feedback During Beta: Contact your dedicated Beta program lead.

    • How to report critical issues: Report breaking changes to Procore Customer Support. For general feedback or non-critical issues, contact your Beta program lead or Procore point of contact.


Currently, only Admin permissions are available. Procore will add more permission levels later.

Tool Admins can create a complete project model by merging files from every discipline into one view. This allows your team to coordinate structural, mechanical, and electrical systems in one place to catch conflicts early. Use the Model Manager to add files directly from the Document Management or Documents tools.
