Comment: "thanks David, that´s very close to what I had myself. I haven´t come across the term before. I put  How are the criteria for intervention in critical supply situations defined? However, the Eskalation bothers me a bit. Is it an escalation, ie worsening of the supply problem? Algy"

threshold
As this describes the levels at which escalation comes into play, I suggest thresholds.

Of course not one word to translate a whole (or initially incomplete) sentence, but to translate the crucial word the asker was after: Einstiegsgroessen. Anybody can string together the rest, but to make David Moore happy, I spell it out: What are the criteria to define the thresholds for supplier escalation.

Escalation is a specific commercial term not adequately represented by \"take appropriate action\"; nor is it supply escalation, but supplier escalation: nothing to do with a worsening supply problem, but a procedure for dealing with suppliers (see for example http://www.gitc.qld.gov.au/156.cfm).
