in der Fläche

English translation: across the board

German to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Retail / Strategic consultancy/marketing
German term or phrase: in der Fläche
This is from a presentation by a top-ranking consultancy on retail banking and potential improvements to the bottom-line / processes.

- Optimierung des Lead-Generierungsprozesses in der Fläche
- Coaching / Training der Führungskräfte zum nachhaltigen Erleben der Wachstumshebel in der Fläche

I wondered about 'in the field' or 'at the coalface' as equivalent business jargon, but I can't help feeling that this is the direct German equivalent for a set English phrase, especially as it used so often in the presentation and these consultancies use quite specific terminology.

Any ideas?
