MAINTAINING THE GOLDEN THREAD How often have you felt that your design and development activities have lost their connection to an identifiable purpose? In complex projects where multiple disciplines – such as mechanical, electrical, chemical, safety, security and environment – must work together to achieve an acceptable solution, it is all too easy to lose the golden thread back to the original stakeholder needs.
