		<description>I would suggest that software analysis, design, and architecture done as part of a project (development or enhancement) are part of the metrics one creates using function points.  Project productivity would include those steps if you collect time accounting data for them at the project level (productivity = function points / total project effort).  Difficulties can occur if time accounting is not granular enough.
