English term or phrase: put in place [ por 5ta vez en el mismo párrafo]
Es la 5ta vez que me encuentro con "put in place" en el mismo párrafo.

Se me han terminado las opciones. ¿Me dan alguna idea de posibles traducciones? Necesito unas cuantas, pues me temo que las repeticiones continuarán. :((

Gracias! :)

Mis opciones anteriores no creo que sean las apropiadas en este contexto, creo que las de Miguel son las apropiadas. También se me ocurre \"Instituir\", \"Determinar\" como posibles opciones.

leave all 5 as the same


Explanation:
I think that if the author of the piece wanted variations to the term he/she would have used them in the original document. If the original is repetetive leave the translation repetitive -
