'zur Verfügung stellen' (to provide / make available) and 'bereitstellen' (to provide / prepare for use) both mean that something can be used. 'zur Verfügung stellen' emphasizes use by others: someone gives something or allows it to be used. 'bereitstellen' additionally emphasizes that something is prepared and brought to the right place so it can be used immediately. The words can be confused because they often occur in similar situations, for example with materials, rooms, or technology. When the preparation is important, 'bereitstellen' sounds more natural.
