Deelactiviteiten
Dutch to English
Bus/Financial
Business/Commerce (general)
"Deelactiviteiten", but not in the sense where one activity leads to another (as in, say, car assembly) -in that case I would be perfectly happy with "stages"
Context: a project where several activities need to be taken into account (or actions that need to be performed) simultaneously in order to complete the entire project.

"A business activity is often composed by subactivities. For example, the business activity "checking validity of notice" consists of the subactivities "searching the customer", "selecting the correct customer from search result", "selecting the policy", "displaying the policy", and "comparing policy and notice". "

concurrent activities
Another possibility. Dutch speakers often use 'deelactiviteiten' to refer to a set of related activities, without there necessarily being any higher-level activity for which they could be 'subactivities'.
If they must be performed in parallel, you could call them 'concurrent activities' if the register of your text permits.
