"[the extranet tool] recense les prévisions sur 12 mois et leurs actualisations. Le Siège établit sur cette base un prévisionnel fiable, validé par la Gestion de la Demande et ***assouvi par*** le Déploiement."

reliable forecasts [...] fulfilled by
Sounds like some corporate shorthand going on here, since we are not told what the forecasts are of, but it appears they are forecasting a need for something which will be fulfilled by Deployment (which deploys a solution to fulfill the forecast need).
I am reading between the lines here, but I think this is a fair translation of your source text, barring any additional information supplied by the context or your client.

: Useful quote there. I quite agree about corporate shorthand - "Déploiement" is used here when other companies could use a word like "Distribution".

Agree, it could even be a "Fulfillment" center or department. But the French couldn't have a Service d'Assouvissement could they ;-)
