what it meant to him to have managed


Explanation:
...to be a part of / participate in ...

or "...to have succeeded in being a part of ..."

haber obtenido >> implies success in a difficult task, hence my suggestions of 'managed to' and 'succeeded in'

"Been able to" is possible but I think something along the lines of what I suggest above may be a little more aligned with the speaker's intent.

I hope this helps :-)
