English translation:execution aids
Explanation:
Why not keep it simple and general, just as the French version was. Even if the context suggests something specific such as a document this is a the most close translation. The aids could be anything such as a phone or fax number or a body of consultants or whatever you can think of. So you are never sure.

support sheets


Explanation:
You could go with either *support sheets* or *help sheets* or, maybe, *support documents* (not the same thing as *supportING documents, which are documents attached to some primary legal document, containing further information)

Enforcement aids


Explanation:
I would probably leave "aides" as "aids" because these could encompass all types of measures - so unless you have more context indicating specifics such as documents etc., it's safer to use as broad a term as the French. Execution in this context is definitely "enforcement".

delivery assistance


Explanation:
This is according to Termium, and can be found in the government terminology section. I do not know whether this applies to your specific case.

procedure manuals


Explanation:
The context refers to "texts" aimed at helping employees to carry out an order/ruling correctly. I suggest "procedure manuals" because they are in written form, and(try to) give detailed instructions to cover all the procedures involved-and perhaps troubleshooting advice.I haven't used a terminology site to arrive at this, but have you tried Eurodicautom, for eg. ? I hope this is oof some help.
