(program) presetting/availability
Explanation:
Sul Marolli Predisposizione è tradotto con Prearrangement.
Il termine che lo segue è "predisposto" che, parlando di apparecchiature o esecuzioni, è tradotto con Preset. In effetti potrebbe aver senso anche nel tuo contesto perché indica che i programmi sono disponibili (ecco perché ho inserito Availability) se non impostati/caricati dal produttore prima della consegna al cliente. Forse dal contesto riesci a farti un'idea più ampia. Ciao, silvia

One of the meanings of "predisposizione" is
"(preparation) arrangement, disposition, preparation."

program(me) implementation


Explanation:
Much depending on the context. Just for your amusement and no slander intended of Ingegner Marolli, a few years ago as I was proofreading the latest edition, many an item had my eyebrow rising (and staying there for a while). Just to say it's not the Bible, though a powerful help. Maurizio

Se parliamo di sviluppo del software.

Se invece pariamo di "rendere disponibile (da lì l'availability di Silvia) un programma su un PC, allora:

setting up


Explanation:
I find it pretty vague here, and with no further context it's difficult to determine whether they intend programming/designing (new applications) as you say, or setting up/configuring/customising/tayloring existing applications according to their clients needs. (As they are describing professional services offered, I think the latter is more likely -- otherwise they would have gone for something impressive like progettazione/programmazione instead.)
"Setting up" is possibly the closest term, with a comparable degree of ambiguity and which could apply to different activities.
