A versatile phrase with multiple senses depending on context. When something is 'in place,' it is either physically positioned correctly, operationally established and functioning, or undisturbed in its original location. In business and organizational contexts, 'in place' typically means a system, policy, or procedure is active and operational ('the protocols are in place').
