If the purchasing agent cannot negotiate satisfactory contract terms, the contracting process terminates. The process then starts over until contracts are in place.When trucks are due for maintenance or
repair, a PGC truck driver takes its trucks to the contracted shops. A PGC purchasing agent approves each maintenance invoice after carefully checking it against the contract terms and to confirm that the required maintenance or repairs are made.

If the invoice does not comply with the terms of the contract, the PGC purchasing agent returns the invoice for correction. If the repairs are not satisfactory, the purchasing agent takes the truck back so the shop can perform the repairs or maintenance satisfactorily.REQUIRED: Using the description above, correct the following BPMN activity diagram to accurately depict the PGC truck contracting and maintenance process.
