achievement / attainment

Die Erreichung der Unternehmensziele wurde am Ende des Jahres gefeiert.
The achievement of the company goals was celebrated at the end of the year.
'Erreichung' (achievement/attainment) is the nominalization of the verb 'erreichen' (to reach/achieve). The ending '-ung' turns a verb into a feminine noun that describes the process or result of the action.

The achievement of the climate goals is a global challenge.
'Erreichung' (achievement/attainment) is a formal word that is often used in written language, official documents, reports, or presentations. In everyday language, people would often prefer a sentence construction with the verb 'erreichen' (to reach/achieve).

implementation / conversion
'die Umsetzung' and 'die Erreichung' can both have to do with a plan or goal. 'die Umsetzung' mainly describes putting an idea or plan into practice. So it is about the action and the path into practical reality. 'die Erreichung', on the other hand, emphasizes that a goal is actually achieved. The words can be confused because a plan is often implemented in order to reach a goal. In practical terms: you talk about 'die Umsetzung einer Maßnahme' (the implementation of a measure), but 'die Erreichung eines Ziels' (the achievement of a goal).
