German term

Sie verfügt über spezielle Kenntnisse und Erfahrungen der relevanten Prozesse...

German to English Tech/Engineering Human Resources Facility Management
It's more of a syntax issue here folks than one specific word. My brain is a bit frazzled and I can't get my syntax right.

If anyone can help it'd be appreciated. Or at least tell me if I've misunderstood the sentence. (I've put my rather awful translation of it below)

Sie verfügt über spezielle Kenntnisse und Erfahrungen der relevanten Prozesse und des Produktes welche für die Anforderungen durch das RABC-System gestellt werden.

The members have special knowledge and experience of the relevant processes and products which will be created for the requests through the RABC system.

The group has, they have...

You have this, however, the last part is not how I understand the German

The members have special knowledge and experience of the relevant processes and

product necessary to satisfy the requirements of the RABC system.

How I might phrase the last part there.
Peer comment(s):

agree archtrans : I would add "and of the product" so product doesn't sound weird in singular

German term (edited): Sie verfügt über spezielle Kenntnisse und Erfahrungen der relevanten Prozesse un

She has special knowledge and experience...

You confused "sie" with "Sie". (she with they) Your syntax is correct but the subject must be SHE in english.
Note from asker:
it refers to a group. I chose they because I don't like using it. (I prefer to humanize where possible)

They possess special knowledge and experience of the processes

Though I would have preferred to start with "She possesses.....", because that is what it states. But then, you have pointed out it refers to a group, and hence I will go with it.
