German term or phrase: Überwachen technischer Änderungen in der Konstruktion, Fertigung und im Service
Context:

"Überwachen technischer Änderungen in der Konstruktion, Fertigung und im Service mit der Maßgabe, Ausbildungsunterlagen, ,Anschauungs- und Demonstrationsmedien zu aktualisieren."

I'm not familiar with this (apparently unusual) usage of the term Maßgabe. Or might the author have mean "Vorgabe" (demand/requirement)?

I am getting confused with your question - is this the source term as stated or the meaning/translation of Maßgabe ?
