轰轰烈烈 - Something that attracts a huge amount of attention from the public. In here, that something is the opening of a new business (开张)

偃旗息鼓 - At the finish of a road/side-walk show, the group flag is taken down and the drum is muted. Here, it implies the business is finished (ceases to operate).

这就要求我们做好企业管理，防备出现轰轰烈烈开张，随即偃旗息鼓的局面.

**This requires/demands us to do a good job in enterprise management to prevent the situation that a business ceases to operate soon/shortly after the eye-popping/catching opening.**

开张(v) = 'grand open'; (a business) start operating

偃旗息鼓 (put away the flags and stop the drums) is a sign of an army has stopped its military operation. The term is often used as a metaphor for 'cease operation'

I'm guessing 我们 refers to the government in some form. An official is speaking.

由于数量增长过快，  
Because the number (of franchises) grew too fast,

出现鱼目混珠的现象也在所难免，  
it is almost unavoidable to prevent the sale of fake or imitation products,

这就要求我们做好企业管理，  
this requires us to maintain a strict business mangement policy,

防备出现轰轰烈烈开张，  
to guard against companies starting with a big bang,

随即偃旗息鼓的局面。  
only to, immediately following, fizzle out like a damp squib.

The government does not want to encourage this practice, but wants companies which endure.
