Sentence 40

Before:

WW designed, manufactured and supplied the complete water and waste water treatment plant as per specifications laid down by the project consultants LI and EPL. EP were our customer while NLC was the end user.  

After:

WW designed, manufactured, and supplied the complete water and waste water treatment plant as per specifications laid out by the project consultants LI, our customer EP, and the end-user, NLC.

Notes:
I combined 2 sentences in one.
Included the facts that our customer was EP and the end-user was NLC in one sentence.
'EP were our customer while NLC was the end user. ' - These details do not merit a separate sentence.

Sentence 1

Before: Our children are our future, is an often quoted statement, which ideally refers to the fact that it is our children who have the power to initiate growth, progress and change in the times to come. After: Our children are our future. This is an oft-quoted statement, which re-iterates that it is our children who have the power to initiate growth, progress and change in times to come.  Notes a. Never place a comma before a verb. ‘Is’ - is a verb.  b. 'often quoted’ is usually written as 'oft-quoted’ c. Don’t use ‘ideally’ unnecessarily. d. 'the times to come.’  to be changed to ‘times to come’. ‘The’ is a definite article. Please read up on the use of definite articles here:  https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/540/01/ e. Avoid constructions with ‘the fact that’ as much as possible.
