Portuguese to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Safety / Environmental Program for a shopping centre
Portuguese term or phrase: estar enquadrado
'Todas as intervenções no equipamento só podem ter lugar se o Fornecedor contratado estiver devidamente enquadrado por um Responsável do Departamento de Manutenção.'

In this case, 'to be framed' doesn't make any sense. How would you put it?

Thank you for your help!

Explanation:
Nesta frase, julgo que "estar devidamente enquadrado por um Responsável" significa "estar devidamente informado/mantido a par da situação/inteirado da situação por um Responsável".
