I'd write up all the errors, but I'm laughing too hard. Here are a few that caught my eye roght off....
"CCTV, UPS, CTS, Telephone," (Attack of the acronyms! Plus "Telephone" shouldn't be capped.)
"drawings, and" (You, don't need, a comma, there.)
"flow charts, and process" (And you, don't need, a comma, there, either.)
"Lardware"? (Huh? Documentation for fat people I guess.)
"Experience documentation"? (Let's add the word "in" or "with" or change it to "documenting")
"documentation Telecommunication systems"? (WTF?? Let's add the word "for".))
"methodology. As well" (What the &#$%^! is that period doing there, waiting for a bus?)
