Tech/Engineering - Photography/Imaging (& Graphic Arts) / Sampling of packaging
Spanish term or phrase: muestreo concertado
Si el material de acondicionado a inspeccionar tiene establecido un acuerdo técnico de muestreo concertado se inspeccionarán 20 muestras seleccionadas al azar pertenecientes a la caja o envase de muestreo concertado.

This is from a document from Spain for UK English setting forth quality assurance procedures for packaging for a pharmaceutical company. I have found it used in Spanish in several places, but can't find the English equivalent.

Thank you in advance!

Explanation:
I think you answered your own question. But I think the sense of "concertado" here is "systematic", & maybe that should appear in the translation. There are examples in this document (see for one IV.3, on p.2): http://web.fedepalma.org/sites/default/files/files/TDR 2 ICT...
