Forgot a word

[atulya]

What is one single word for:

when people discuss something together to ensure that they are on the same level of understanding.

I used to use that word. It sounds like collaboration, but I can't remember what it is.

Can somebody help?

[konungursvia]

Touching base?

[atulya]

Thanks but that's not one word.

[atulya]

Ok. I got it. It's "Calibration"

[suikerbossie]

Are you sure?

[konungursvia]

Each one of my words was one word, twice as good.

[konungursvia]

Calibration is a mechanical operation to ensure measurement devices are accurate. It is not used for social or interpersonal interactions.

[Kätzchen]

I thought calibration is just for measuring instruments or machinery. I never heard it used for communication. Is it correct to use it in this context?

[bhaisahab]

Ok. I got it. It's "Calibration"

Are you sure it's not concord or concordance?
