German term or phrase: Spiegelmanager
Um Überbestände abzubauen, muss eine Bestandsfortführung existieren. Hierzu müssen Bestellzuständigkeiten und -abläufe geklärt werden. Hat die Firma einen >>Spiegel- bzw. Umbaumanager<<, der das Material für Umbauten bestellt, bietet sich dieser zur Führung dieser Liste an.

Explanation:
My first thought was with philg on this. I have seen it used in the terms of 'level' in the sense of 'How much?'

This led me to the link below and the term above. It should be something like that in your context. The term control might be optional but was used in this link.

neutral  philgoddard: We know the phrase exists in English, but I haven't found anything proving that it's what Spiegelmanager means.

  -> I agree, proving it will be difficult. I have not seen "Spiegel" used in this way too often, but just enough to allow me to comment. Of course, this will be worth a note to the customer.
