ONE ESTABLISHED HIERARCHY

Your business.
Your workspace.
Your people.

The foundation remains Global → Organization → Band/workspace → Member. For staffing & security, the workspace represents your service team. Its people and tools sit within your organization.

Event participation connects you to other vendors through assigned access. It gives the shared work a home while each business keeps its own structure.
