Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering
Spanish term or phrase: Acción Integrada
In a proposal for joint development of an R&D project by two organizations.

Context: The term first appears as a section heading, folowed by: "El objetivo genérico de la ***Acción Integrada*** es avanzar, conjuntamente los equipos Xxxxx y Yyyyy, en el análisis, diseño y construcción de ...".

It's not really a joint venture, since these are not two companies, but rather two research institutes.
