It is demonstrated how the hierarchy between the gauge coupling unification scale of minimal supersymmetry and the Planck (or string) scale, which resembles in order of magnitude a loop factor, can actually be explained as such in supergravity-coupled supersymmetry. A gauge and global singlet field acquires a linear potential term due to its one-loop supergravity interactions and slides to the desired scale. The singlet field can then provide the seed for the breaking of the unified theory at the appropriate scale via its couplings to fields in the adjoint representation.
