Dutch term or phrase: procesbeschrijvingen

This word occurs in a job description for a secretary and appears in the following section:

Verricht werkzaamheden van representatieve aard (gastvrouwfunctie). Levert een bijdrage aan de uitvoering van bepaalde projecten, zoals bijv. verhuizingen, procesbeschrijvingen, invoeren van procedures en/of apparatuur e.d. Rapporteert hierover aan de manager.
Organiseert (regionale) bijeenkomsten voor relaties.

Can anyone help with "procesbeschrijvingen"?

process descriptions

Explanation:
I would simply write "process descriptions", it's a common English term in the field of e.g. quality.

In my opinion we are not talking about legal proceedings here. In Dutch we don't say "procedure invoeren" in this context, but rather "een procedure opstarten, inleiden".
