Here it sounds like "end" means "goal" or "result". "End" is sometimes used in this way, especially in business English. You can think of it as, "what is the goal / result at the end of this project?"
In this context "in view" means that this company thinks that their end goal is getting close. Literally "in view" would mean that they can see it. A goal isn't always a physical object that can be seen, but you can still say it's "in view" if you feel like you're getting close to reaching your goal.
