The first part about a procedure is not so far-fetched in a regulation and standards-rich environment. The procedure won't be a literal step-by-microcosmic step description of what happens, but it will set out the requirements of the process and final product. Your circumstances, however, may not be so heavy on the regulations and standards. That second part about "anyone can do it", though... that looks like the tip of some kind of iceberg. Is there someone else you can talk to in the organization who knows the context and players? Good luck. -- Milan Davidovic http://altmilan.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.
