Experience Tracking

Last updated: July 24, 2026

Experience Tracking in Bridgit automatically computes the experience team members gain from working on projects, based on configurable factors like build type, owner, architect, and market sector. Experience data helps you evaluate team composition, identify expertise gaps, and make informed staffing decisions.

Eligibility/Prerequisites

Required Configuration: Experience tracking must be enabled in your account. Once enabled, an administrator will need to configure fields to be used for experience tracking in Settings > People > Experience Tracking

Permissions: Experience data respects role-based permissions. Users only see experience for team members they have permission to view.

How to Use

Configuring Experience Tracking

Before experience can be computed for team members, an admin needs to configure the fields that experience could be tracked for:

  1. Go to Settings > People > Experience Tracking

  2. Select and Save the project fields that you want to track experience for. Supported field types include text and single select.

Importing Experience

To ensure data completeness in Bridgit, you can import experience that team members gained from projects planned outside of Bridgit or from previous employers.

You can do this in two places:

  • Settings > People > Experience Tracking (Bulk Import)

  • Profile > Experience tab, click "Add Experience"

Only administrators can add experience.

Viewing Experience Summaries on Profiles

  1. Navigate to a team member's profile

  2. Click the Experience tab

  3. Select the Summary or List option to view experience data.

Viewing Team Experience on a Project

Common Questions

Q: What experience fields to companies track most often?

The most common fields used for experience tracking include build type, owner, market sector, and project value.

Experience is calculated by looking at the number of days a team member was assigned to an awarded project. The calculation is not impacted by assignment %. For active projects, the experience duration will continue to increase as the resource continues to gain experience on that project.

You can import experience that team members gained from projects planned outside of Bridgit or from previous employers.

You can do this in two places:

  • Settings > People > Experience Tracking (Bulk Import)
