French to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / naval architecture
French term or phrase: porteur de l'architecture
The document takes the form of a checklist to ensure that various aspects of the engineering solutions for the construction of a ship are taken into account.

This checklist is said to be "passée par le porteur de l'architecture avant le circuit de validation du document". This "porteur de l'architecture" is most certainly a person, as an earlier sentence stated that this step should be performed by an Engineering Manager.

My working solution for "porteur" is "lead", which is the safest solution I have been able to derive from my personal glossaries. Does anyone have a better suggestion?
