Portuguese term or phrase: posto a risca
"o investimento em manutenção das estradas principais deve ser posto a risca na atividade florestal, visto esta manutenção refletir diretamente na redução dos custos da atividade."


Normalmente eu traduziria "posto a risca" como "put at risk" mas isso não fica bem nesta frase. Ideas?
