expedited
Without any context, I am feeling literal. Expedited, gotten-moving, gotten rolling are all variants that come to mind.

Если это в негативе: They practiced cookie-cutter approach to solving complicated issues
Контексту, барин!!!!
Дело вот в чём: если смысл выражения "поставить на конвейер" негативный, то...
то и метафору лучше использовать негативно окрашенную . В моём примере имеется в виду, что "поставить на конвейер" = "шаблонно подходить, не применять оригинальные способы решения проблем".
В положительном смысле я бы свой вариант применять не стал.
Всё, Минздрав предупредил.
Удачи.

put through the sausage machine
Like Viktor, I am assuming this is used negatively. "Cookie-cutter approach" is US English. This is an equivalent one in UK English.
Case studies
... to be able to preserve childhood for my pupils rather than stand by and see them put through the 'sausage-machine' of formal education in this country. ...

fast-tracked
The solution of complex/difficult problems was fast-tracked.
This is just a guess/suggestion, since I don't know the context. Putting the problem on a conveyor, so to speak, would seem to indicate a straight-through solution, the fast track to the solution.
The combination of solution and fast track is found frequently in Google.

If negative, then the solution was sidetracked. However, the culinary cookie cutter and sausage machine are cool!!!!
