French term or phrase: instruction de dossier
In a text explaining the methods used by the AFSSAPS (French Health Products Safety Agency) for its inspections

L’Afssaps a défini son approche basée sur le risque par le croisement de critères relatifs à :
– des risques intrinsèques liés aux activités exercées (risque en lien avec les activités, l’environnement ou les produits de santé),
– l’historique de l'établissement (suivi des engagements pris par l’opérateur à la suite d’une inspection ou d’une instruction de dossier),
– des signaux reçus par l’Afssaps (plainte, défaut qualité, incident, accident, signal de vigilance ou dans le cadre d’instruction administrative de dossier).

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Mark Hamlen: except I would prefer "the case" instead of "file" which isn't used like that in English
12 mins
  -> Thank you Mark

disagree  rkillings: Processing and examining may be going on, but a "file" is not the object of it. In so far as the dossier here is a "file", it's about compiling the contents of it. "Preparing the case" is more like it.
