German term or phrase: Konstruktionsstand
Der Auftragnehmer verpflichtet sich, einen Konstruktionsstand zu erfassen.
Der Konstruktionsstand bezieht sich auf die in dieser Leistungsbeschreibung festgelegten Leistungsanforderungen.

Der Auftragnehmer verpflichtet sich, alle nach diesem erfaßten Konstruktionsstand geforderten Geräte auch in Zukunft (bei evtl. weiteren Verträge) in dieser Form an den Auftragnehmer zu liefern bzw. die Änderungen vor Abschluß eines Vertrages dem Auftraggeber mitzuteilen.

I understand what it means, but is there an expression for this in English?

Thanks for any help,

Angela

design framework
Explanation:
You were probably confused by the word 'Stand', which normally means 'status, condition'. In your context, the supplier has to create a design framework, which provides the underlying specifications for all future devices, and undertakes to deliver equipment based on this framework.

Thanks, Marcus. That makes a lot of sense. (And, yes I was confused by the meaning of "Stand" here!)
