Norwegian term or phrase: synliggjør - in this context
I am aware that 'synliggjør' can mean 'to make visible' or 'to highlight', as well as a raft of other synonyms, but I am struggling to find a suitable solution for this software marketing text. It crops up countless times, and on each occasion, it just doesn't seem to fit in English.

One such example is: "Vi har siden 1987 levert programvare som kvalitetsikrer kundearbeidet, synliggjør og forenkler deling av digital informasjon mellom ansatte."

If you can think of any other suitable synonyms, I'd really like to hear them!

Thanks in advance.

Explanation:
Synliggjøre in the context you mention is about pulling it up into a more prominent position, and elevate is a good word choice for that in my opinion.

Vi har siden 1987 levert programvare som kvalitetsikrer kundearbeidet, synliggjør og forenkler deling av digital informasjon mellom ansatte."

Example sentence(s):
  • Since 1987, we have supplied software that quality assures customer relations, which elevates and simplify sharing of digital information between employees.
