I just read with interest Bruce Buckley's cover story on enhanced productivity, titled "Teams Are Driving Detailed Planning Into Design Phase" (ENR 7/7 p. 34). [The story does a "great" job of documenting the] benefits of aligning, early in the process,engineering planning with construction planning and integrating advanced work packaging.

As I perused the article, I kept waiting to read two specific words to describe this integrated process. However, as I reached the conclusion of the story, I was somewhat disappointed that the two words did not appear in print.
