# Manage collaborators

When responding to a request for proposal (RFP), request for information (RFI) or a request for quote (RFQ) event , you can invite collaborators to help you respond to the event. Additionally, collaborators can view or send (with Edit permissions) [comments](/suppliers/suppliers/events/communicate-with-buyers/event-comments.md) for their events. You must be the primary person invited by the buyer to share the event with other collaborators. For each collaborator, you can manage their permissions, controlling if they are able to view or edit the event response.
