A seamless project plan is one characterized by an integrated set of objectives across a range of disciplines and experimental approaches. These plans demonstrate how each of the objectives contributes to the overall project goal and how the investigation team functions as a team. Seamless project plans contain two key characteristics; first, an overall goal of the objectives that provides a framework for all of the objectives; and second, a statement of how the results fulfill the overall goal of the project. Too often, project statements with a collection of objectives do not show the reader how these objectives relate to one another. In developing the project plan with a number of objectives, discuss how the objectives help each other and utilize a diagram to demonstrate how fulfillment of one objective may be necessary before research progresses on the other objective.
