standardise
Establish consistent protocols
Standardise is the British spelling of standardize.
To standardise something is to make it conform to a standard—a uniform set of specifications or procedures: The company standardised its training across all departments.
Industries standardise parts so they're interchangeable; organisations standardise processes for consistency and efficiency.
