Yes!
In any scheme by which business processes are abstracted into a model so
that new solutions can be synthesized we must have a capability to com-
municate. The scheme must allow designers to talk to customers.
OO schemes, IDEF or any other are really languages similar to mathematics
and must be understood by all engaged in the project. The carpenter and
the architect must be able to use the English measuring system. In fact
in today's world both must also know the Metric system.
