Hi Marika,
In response to your note:
I would need to see the full (original) sentence before making a suggestion.
Also in general it's best to translate from another language into your mother tongue, rather than vice versa.

agree  Fiona Grace Peterson: "Strengthen" is fine. "Take command"... something like "increase precision" would be better...

  -> thanks - although I think Phil was referring to the word order ("strengthen also") being wrong.
