Explanation:
I think they first identify applicable standards and guidelines and then agree on their implementation.

Just a wild guess from a non-native. Perhaps it gets you on the right track.

Explanation:
in the sense of browsed through

refs: Oxford/Duden; Duden (= durchsehen und ordnen).

Given that the standards are predefined documents, the only sense in which they could be ordered or sorted would be to arrange them in some sort of order (e.g. alphabetic) and/or record them (their titles etc.) on a list (if this does not already exist), but IMO that is of secondary importance here.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Klaus Herrmann: Judging by the context, sichten is being used in the sense of "to browse". "To sort/sortieren" does not work for me at all.

Explanation:
Although examined would work here as well, my first thought is "review" as in its sense of "for review = zur Durchsicht".
