communications strategy
Explanation:
I'm pretty sure this is what's meant (see the usage at the sites below), so I would say it like this:

". . . the PR opportunities within the overall communications strategy are not being utilized/leveraged effectively."

If I had the rest of the sentence/paragraph, I'd be inclined to structure it differently.

Explanation:
For what it's worth, this is how I translated Kommunikationsauftritt in the past:

Kommunikative Unterstützung des Absatzkanals innerhalb eines komplexen Kommunikationsauftrittes
Communicative support of the distribution channel within a complex presentation

Die auffällige und marktfähige Gestaltung des Gütesiegels wird im Kommunikationsauftritt unverwechselbar wahrgenommen.
The striking and marketable design of the quality mark creates a high degree of brand awareness in the company's communications.

=> "... the PR possibilities as part of the entire company communications are not leveraged effectively ..."
