tener un documento abierto y vivo to maintain and record ongoing documentation

Explanation:
The idea seems to be that the person in question is to both preserve whatever documentation has already been recorded and to add to it as needed.

Suerte.

Thank you, Ronnie.

1 hr confidence:

'tableau de bord' / dashboard

Explanation:
The source text seems to be referring to a concept invented by a French economist, called a 'tableau de bord' and often referred to in English-language business circles by the same French term: 'tableau de bord. In other environments it is more often translated as 'dashboard'.

Either way, it's a 'document' (actually, a complex software system feeding summary information to a computer screen) that records everything that's going on, as and when it happens, in the hope of foreseeing risks and/or opportunities.
