Swedish term or phrase: \"avstämning\" or \"stämma av\"
Hi -
How to best translate this idea? Here's an example, from a procedure describing management system meetings: "En regelbunden avstämning och utvärdering av verksamhetens ledningsystem".
It's somewhere between coordination and an agreement meeting. Any suggestions as to a specific term? Many thanks

Explanation:
Any of these should work, depending on whether there's an actual meeting or just a report or verbal update. So for this instance, 'Regular status and evaluation updates on the operation's management system.' Something like that.
