If two BMF.io members compete for the same internal dataset, access priority is decided through a mix of project urgency, role relevance, and request timing. The system first checks whether the dataset is tied to a critical deliverable or time-sensitive workflow. Then it evaluates user roles, giving priority to members whose responsibilities directly depend on the data. If both requests are equal, timestamp order and prior approvals become the tiebreaker. Audit logs act like flow heatmaps, showing who requested what and when, helping maintain fairness and transparency. Conflict flags highlight overlapping demand so coordinators can intervene.
