Scene assembly, set dressing, pipeline, workflow

hi guys.

New one in here so quick introduce - 3d guy from poland with background in commercial work ( http://panoptiqm.com )

Thanks all for taking your time here and helping

I just started reading about realTime engines and i thought it might be a good start to do something different.

I've got some understanding of commercial/film pipeline, but its a bit different from realTime/game. ( of course it depends on many apsects)

My first question is related to very basic thing (technically) which is set dressing- How should team of e.g. 4 or more people work in a collaboration/simultaneously on a single level ? Of course it should be based on kind of concept

or quick sketch, but at first I thought of simple grid division manageable parts

What's your opinion and observations? What're standards? It should be done in dcc app or maybe done directly in engine (UE/Unity) or maybe each and every artist can make its part wherever he wants and export it as obj or something and then MASTER ARTIST merge it into one ?

Maybe you can point me out to some books or tuts/resources. Would be cool.

Thanks in advance!
