So;
"This data highlights the perfect capacity this company posses for . . . " ?

I'd interpret that as "Puts in writing" (figuratively); would "Makes evident" "Makes concrete" "Proves" etc. all be synonyms?

Ah, if it's the verb manifest, I'd interpret the phrase as "put into existence" which also makes sense in the above situation (though pretty much means the same thing).

La cantidad de muertes pone de manifesto la importancia de seguro automotor.

I wouldn't say put into existance, rather expose it, as being evident...
