# How do I complete a project on Gildform?

## Learn how to review, approve, and finalize your design project after collaborating with a CAD designer.

Once you’ve collaborated with your CAD designer and all changes have been finalized, you’ll move through the final steps to complete your project:

---

#### **1. Designer Marks Project as Ready for Approval**

- After all requested changes have been addressed (either accepted or declined), your designer will complete their internal checklist and move the project to the **Review & Approve Design** stage.
- You’ll see a notification in the project chat when this happens.![](https://support.gildform.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-03-2025-01-22-24-7798-AM.png?width=688&height=230&name=image-png-Sep-03-2025-01-22-24-7798-AM.png)

---

#### **2. Review & Approve Your Design**

- At this stage, you can review to ensure the designer has captured all your requests.
- An **Approve** button will appear at the bottom of the project interface.
- Once you’re satisfied with the final design, click **Approve** to move the project forward.

#### **3. Project Delivered**

- After you approve the design, your project will move to the **Project Delivered** stage.
- Here, your designer will upload and provide any necessary files to complete your project (e.g., production-ready 3D files).
- Once this stage is complete, your project is officially finalized.

---

### **Important Notes**

- You must approve the project before it can be marked as delivered.
- If additional changes are needed, you’ll need to submit a change request **before** approving the design.

### **Next Steps**

Once your project is marked **Project Delivered** and your final files are ready, you can:
