Joining an organisation

Last updated: 23 December 2025 16:29 BST

Joining an organisation in VU.CITY Hub not only connects you with your team but also provides crucial access to licensed tools. This guide details the benefits of joining an organisation and how it facilitates access to VU.CITY's advanced 3D modelling capabilities.

What is an organisation in VU.CITY Hub?

An organisation in VU.CITY Hub represents a group of users, typically from the same company, who are coordinated under a subscription to access VU.CITY platform. Organisations serve as the primary means for managing projects, resources, licenses, and user permissions efficiently.

How to join an organisation

Joining an organisation typically involves an invitation from an existing administrator:

  1. Receive an invitation: You'll receive an email invite from the organisation’s admin, which includes a link to join.
  2. Accept the invitation: By clicking the link, you'll be directed to VU.CITY Hub to accept the invite and integrate into the organisation’s structure.
  3. Access resources and licenses: Once a member, you’ll have access to all the organisation’s licensed resources, including the VU.CITY 3D app, depending on your assigned permissions.


Key benefits of joining an organisation

Access to licenses

Joining an organisation gives you access to any licenses purchased by the company, such as those for the VU.CITY 3D app or SiteSolve. These licenses are typically not available to individual users and are essential for accessing the full range of VU.CITY’s tools.


Collaborative features

Leverage shared projects and communication tools for better teamwork and project coordination.


Centralised management

Manage projects and member roles efficiently, with clear visibility on permissions and access rights.


Resource sharing

Utilise shared project files, and other resources that streamline project workflows.


Enhanced communication

Facilitate easier and faster communication within the platform, improving decision-making and issue resolution.

Being part of an organisation in VU.CITY Hub is fundamental to fully leveraging the platform’s capabilities, particularly accessing licensed tools like the 3D app that are not available to individual accounts. It ensures a collaborative, resource-rich environment for optimal urban planning and design outcomes.
