What is TeamPlayer?
TeamPlayer is a RedTeam portal that streamlines project documentation between GCs and
vendors, facilitating critical workflows such as bidding, negotiating, contracting,
compliance, and billing.
What’s in it for you?
The TeamPlayer application allows seamless collaboration between the GC and your team
of Vendors on the following items:
● Requests for Quote
● Submitting Quotes
● Viewing Contracts and Change Orders
● Submitting AIA style progress billing
● Accessing project planroom
● Viewing Lien Waivers and Credential Statuses

by checking the box
Next, fill in the Construction Billing section to determine how much of your $10
invoice processing fee you will pass on to your vendors.

Configuring your commitment forms
From the Configuration Menu, click on Commitment Forms, and use the Tools Icon to edit the Commitment Form of your choice
Scroll to the Workflow Options section and check the “To be used with TeamPlayer” Box
Enabling vendor profiles
Enter the Vendor’s Profile from the Vendor’s Overview Menu and click on the Edit Button
Scroll to the TeamPlayer section of the profile and check the box to enable TeamPlayer. Click Save to finish editing the vendor profile
Sending requests for quote
Create a Request for Quote (RFQ) for any TeamPlayer enabled Vendor via the Vendor Quotes page of your project
Once the RFQ is committed, click on the Document Icon to view the RFQ.
Click the Email button to send the RFQ to the vendor via TeamPlayer; they will be able to submit their quote within their TeamPlayer portal.
Sending commitment forms
To send a commitment form to a vendor via TeamPlayer, simply create a TeamPlayer enabled commitment form in the Buyout Tab of your project and email it to a TeamPlayer enabled Vendor
The link below provides a guide to interpreting whether or not a given commitment in your Buyout Tab is eligible to be sent using TeamPlayer, meaning that both the form type and the vendor profile have been enabled for TeamPlayer
Vendor invoicing workflow
When a vendor invoice is received from TeamPlayer, it will appear in your RedTeam Invoices list as a Draft Invoice, but it cannot be edited by the GC. If editing is needed, it must be rejected back to the vendor
If the “Reject & Cancel” button is used in Step 5 of the Invoice Approval process, the Invoice will return to the vendor in their TeamPlayer account, also as a draft, so that they may make any requested corrections
A Vendor may have only one draft invoice at a time for a single commitment, so all previous invoices must be committed by the GC before the vendor can submit their next invoice.
Note that if an invoice is initially submitted via TeamPlayer, it can only be modified via the vendor’s TeamPlayer portal. It cannot be re-submitted manually via RedTeam.
How to access the Help Center and chat support
When you are logged into your RedTeam account, click on your name to access your Account Menu, and select the “Help Center” option. Within the Help Center, you will find training resources and a page for logging various types of support tickets.
