German to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) / project financing

German term or phrase: Abstimmungsdefizit

The context is involving financial backers in negotiations when bidding on a construction project.
"Die Vergabestelle geht davon aus, dass die Bieter ihre(n) jeweiligen Finanzierungspartner aktiv in die Verhandlungen mit einbeziehen werden, um *Abstimmungsdefizite* zu vermeiden und ein wirtschaftlich optimiertes Angebot zu erzielen."

I just can't think of a snappy way of saying this.
Thanks, Kevin
