  7. Good content, it clearly gives the basics and the concept to a layman reader.
    Would have been more effective if you incorporated the examples of the industry.
    Can you also mention the challenges in implementation?

  8. You can talk to departments when identifying cost drivers.
    Some cost drivers could be identify accurately by further categorizing the department cost.
    Eg cutting department has a separate planning dept, manual cut dpt, CAD etc. Cost drivers might change with in cutting department as well
