Security & Access Control

Security and Control for Construction Data

Arkan gives you control over who can see and change project data, and keeps a clear history of document versions and approvals.

Two-Factor Authentication

Users can be required to confirm sign-in with a 6-digit code from Google Authenticator. Administrators can reset two-factor authentication if a user loses access to their app.

Per-Screen Role Permissions

Administrators set permissions for each role on each screen: Retrieve, Insert, Update, Delete, Print, Export, Approver and Owner. Without Retrieve, a screen is not accessible at all.

Encrypted Folders

Folders in the File Manager can optionally be set up with encryption for sensitive documents.

English & Arabic with RTL

Switch between English and Arabic at any time. In Arabic, the whole interface uses a right-to-left layout.

Document Version History

Arkan keeps a version history for documents, so you can trace changes and restore a previous version when needed.

Workflow & Approval History

Submittals, inspections, RFIs and other requests move through configurable approval workflows, and each request keeps its history of responses, attachments and workflow steps.
