There are manyimportant studies, such as concurrent engineering have been performed about this subject andthese studies have been successfully integrated to the conventional design process1. As a resultof the growth of the companies, departments could be located in the different places and far fromeach other, so that the professionals have less and limited opportunity for face to facecommunication and brainstorming. Therefore, it is a necessity to modify and adapt classicalmethods to the current situation. Developments, especially on the communication andinformation technology, increase the adaptation possibility of conventional methods to the newsituations.

Baum claims engineers arehired for their analytical and problem-solving skills more than their technical skills. Yetcommunication skills are equally important because information becomes knowledge only whenconclusions drawn from analyses and potential solutions to problems are effectivelycommunicated to those who need to make decisions or implement solutions.
