French term or phrase: CMC (Capabilité de Moyens de Contrôle)
Practically no context. This is from a list of acronyms and their definitions. I do have this bit within the document (about managing relationships with suppliers for a car manufacturer):

"Résultats attendus engageants:

Les Gammes de contrôle prévisionnelles sont établies pour la mise au point.

Les Rapports de ****capabilité de Moyens de Contrôle**** (CMC) sont conformes aux objectifs.

Les Moyens de contrôle du PCP sont réceptionnés : ils sont étalonnés et capables."

Have found nothing on the internet for "Capabilité de Moyens de Contrôle," but did get relevant hits for "Capabilité DES Moyens de Contrôle." "Moyens de contrôle" on its own is fairly common as well, but can't find standard English equivalent...

Suggestions greatly appreciated! Thanks.
