German term or phrase: verzahnter Einsatz
Grundsätzlich ist bei der Wahl der geeigneten Kommunikationsinstrumente und -mittel immer darauf zu achten, dass sich diese durch einen verzahnten Einsatz gegenseitig stützen, sinnvoll ergänzen und damit die Gesamtwirkung verstärken.

This is from a working paper for a business model.

integrated operation
Explanation:
"integrated application" is also better than the answer of Iris, since communications tools are more likely to be applied or operated than interlocked. Interlocked usually refers to mechanical parts.
