Hebrew term or phrase: ליווי (עסקי)
The two possible words I can think of are Escort and Accompaniment. The first is somewhat... tainted while the second seems a bit awkward and sluggish.
Can anyone come up with any other expression to describe the function of walking through a business process with a customer?

Explanation:
To ass to the above. I see it more in the way of business guidance, someone who monitor, supervise, and guide you through the process.
Although Business consulting sounds OK too.

business coach


Explanation:
This is usually an experienced entrepreneur or a management consultant who helps another business (usually a fledgling or start-up business) to set up a business plan, cash flow forecast, to determine the market demand, to map out an advertising programme, and determine the feasibility of a proposed business idea. I think this is the sense in which the term is used in an Israeli context. If you mean somebody who physically takes a customer through the plant and shows them what is there or how it works, then a term such as personal orientation guide might be neutral enough to avoid the connotations of "escort". Hope this helps.
