Dutch term or phrase: vlekkenplan
"Aan de hand hiervan kan dan een vlekkenplan worden gemaakt waarmee een indeling naar functionele plekken ontstaat."

Explanation:
found this site with Dutch and English; seems like this might fit within the context as well.......

Would depend if this involves the location of employees within a company or buildings/companies within a city, in which case Willemina's answer would be more appropriate (zoning plan)

Met deze tekening komen we bij u langs en gaan we met u rond de tafel zitten. Op deze tekening wordt in dialoog met u een \"vlekkenplan\" geschetst, een en ander met behulp van meegebrachte foto\'s en boeken. Dit wordt bij ons de \"vlekkenplansessie\" genoemd, en is eigenlijk een van leukste onderdelen van de hele planvorming. De opdrachtgever kan op een ontspannende manier al zijn wensen uiten en krijgt meteen feedback erover van de ontwerper.

it seems more people have had trouble with it. Someone else translated it as \"spot plan\", apparently, which I rather like myself.

zone plan/customer focus plan


Explanation:
De context is een beetje vaag, maar als het om ruimtelijke "vlekken" gaat zou je misschien "zone plan" kunnen gebruiken. Als het gaat om "vlekken" met betrekking tot klanten waar men zich op wil richten zou je aan "customer focus plan" kunnen denken.

Zo maar wat ideeen - misschien heb je er wat aan. Good Luck!
