I'm translating a job description for a managing director of a school. It's just a list of responsibilities, including the following:
Mitwirkung bei Organisationsuntersuchungen
My brain's gone blank and I can't think of a neat way to write this in English - it means that he has to be helpful when either internal or external people take a look at the running of the school and suggest how it could be better organised.
Thanks

organizational analysis
I find the term "analysis" (which is also in LEO for "Untersuchung) a bit more fitting here because it is a broader term. It seems that this person has collaborated in more than just a survey.
