Assign setup and ongoing responsibilities
Agree who owns each part before starting setup. One person may hold several roles. Employees who only use finished tools do not need Google Cloud access or a paid Applane seat.
Company setup
Section titled “Company setup”| Role | Access needed | Responsibility |
|---|---|---|
| Applane owner or admin | Company Google account and Applane admin access | Create the account, collect configuration values, run checks and manage building access. Owners also manage billing. |
| DNS owner | Permission to edit the company’s DNS | Add the verification TXT record. |
| Google Cloud or Platform admin | Permission to enable APIs and update project IAM; billing access for budgets | Configure the project, builders group IAM grant, OAuth client and budget alerts. |
| Workspace admin | Relevant Google Admin console permissions | Check Apps Script, create groups and any publishing bot, set sharing policy and manage offboarding. |
Create the builders group before granting it project access. DNS verification can run while the other setup work is in progress. The setup path links to each team’s instructions.
After setup
Section titled “After setup”| Role | Responsibility | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Employee building a tool | Describe the task, test it and publish reviewed changes. | Build your first tool |
| Tool owner | Handle questions, access requests and maintenance; arrange a backup editor. | Sharing, maintenance |
| Manager or team lead | Choose the first task, test with colleagues and review whether it helps. | Team rollout |
| Leadership or budget owner | Agree the rollout scope, ownership and budget with IT and the team. | Pricing, budget alerts |
| App user | Use the published link with the correct work account; report issues to the tool owner. | Use a shared tool |
Allow about an hour for setup when one person has all the required access. Split ownership can add approval and scheduling time; confirm those handoffs before promising a rollout date.
