- There are a number of interpretations of the concept “integration” in Product Development (PD). Different sources tend to use different terminologies for describing the same phenomenon of integration, or use the same term for different purposes. This paper strives to capture the essence of the concept of “integration” within a product development project by looking for what is integrated and how integration is established. As the intent purpose is to contribute to a better understanding of the concept, an extensive literature review is performed. On the basis of current thinking, recommendations for competitive integrated product development are explored. A conceptual framework for the concept of integration in product development is also provided in order to indicate a sense of future direction. True integration is founded upon the bridging of knowledge, and the literature on product development needs to be further systematized for the structuring of *Integration mechanisms (*Im) that establish such integration. With a holistic view of *Im, true performance of IPD can be measured.
