action plan/program(me)

It sounds English/American and is slightly less vague than "policy framework" (though that would also do). Thousands of Googles!

\"system of programmed activities/actions\" wold be the best version if you are sure that <meropriyatii - refers to \'activities\'/actions.>

извиняюсь, не здесь должно быть не \"measurements\" а \"measures\"

system of programmatic measures

That's another one from a non-native (oops), but I suspect the natives can't help much with this particular one (no disrespect to the natives, mind you :-)). This is a typical example of Russian bureaucracy lingo, and in my mind it has to be countered (translated) with something equally full of meaning...
"Programmnih" here does not mean "program", "pertaining to (a) program", nor it means "programmed". It refers to the nature of measures - "programmatic".
The difference between "measures" and "activities" is slight, but notable - the measures are, if you will, "retaliatory" activities to address some problem or to achieve some result..

thanks
agree Yulian Tissen : It's "bureaucratese" but possible in English, and on the plus side, it allows an easy back-translation into Russian, which is good for this sort of documents.

В техническом тексте практически на все 100 это было бы ОК, хотя на и в данном контексте должно работать.
