Comment: In the second paragraph the last sentence reads "It is the height of the barcode that gives barcodes their durability and makes them easier to scan" The use of the word durability is not accurate, the height does not make it more durable. That would be referring to label material, print quality etc Simply making it taller doesn't make it physically stronger. It could say - "Increasing the height of a barcode improves its readability and makes them easier to scan"

Comment: "Parts that are not listed in the inventory records or not stored in the warehouse storage areas" is not the best definition of a non-stocking item or special order part. Non-stocking items in my experience are listed in the inventory record and are stored in the warehouse in a specific segregated area as stated below on page 5. It should read something similar to the following. "Parts that are not regularly kept in inventory and are ordered to fulfill a specific request, project or customer order. Items are typically not replenished automatically and may require purchasing approval"

Comment: First paragraph, the disadvantages of a fixed location system are not all statements are accurate. A fixed location does not always require a long bin location, the bin location can be as little as 3-4 characters and parts not found readily is not a disadvantage of this particular method it is related to an error not directly related to this particular method.

Comment: External Orders Very seldom do organizations use a name as a PO anymore, this is very poor practice. If you are to reference a name it should be a first and last name along with a contact phone number to avoid illegitimate purchases. It should be noted, in todays industry most organizations require a valid ERP generated purchase order be referenced. In industry, Parts Technicians referencing an invalid PO when invoicing customers is prevalent issue. Therefore there should be a focus on the Parts Technician ensuring the purchase order referenced is valid and accurate. If not it can lead to a lot of confusion and create avoidable inefficiencies.

Comment: For question #6 in the Objective One/Exercise Nine section, consider swapping the content of part a) and part b) Currently, you must solve part b as a portion of solving part a, it would make more sense to reverse the order of how they appear, so that you solve for Liters used and Liters remaining, then convert to imperial gallons.

Comment: At the top of page 8 the second statement notes when the vehicle is traveling in reverse the rear shoe is called the trailing or the reverse acting shoe . this is incorrect in relation to the Figure 11 images of self-energization. When identifying the leading or forward acting vs the trailing or reverse acting in a leading -trailing brake assembly it should state that the leading /trailing position changes based on which shoe is self-energizing . This changes based on the direction of vehicle travel
