German term or phrase: ansetzen
"In der Praxis ist es aus verschiedenen Gründen wie z.B. Zeiltbegrenzung, Auditscopebegrenzung, fehlende Zulassungsunterlagen etc. häufig schwierig, sämtliche Aspekte angemessen zu auditieren. Insbesondere die Heterogenität im GMP-Compliance-Status der Hersteller führt zu Unterschieden in der Audittiefe und verlangt professionelle Anpassung der Prioritäten im Audit. ***Hier setzt das Qualitätsmanagementsystem-Audit (QM-System-Audit) der [name of company] an.***"

Wondering about the precise meaning of 'ansetzen' in this context...Thanks!
