SRPQ
Detailed explanation
Correct order : S R P Q
Final sentence (polished):
"Some new composite criteria of classification were notified in 2020, with guidelines to facilitate the present and prospective entrepreneurs for manufacturing and service units."
Why this order is right (step-by-step)
S — subject phrase: Some new composite criteria of classification
This is the noun phrase that names what the sentence is about (criteria). It must come before the main verb.
R — main verb + time + connector: were notified in 2020, with guidelines to
were notified in 2020 is the main finite verb phrase (passive voice) that tells us what happened to the subject.
The phrase with guidelines to immediately follows and introduces a purpose/adjunct that needs an infinitive verb phrase to complete its meaning. Because this is part of the predicate, R must come right after the subject (S).
P — infinitive/purpose clause: facilitate the present and prospective entrepreneurs
This completes with guidelines to… — the guidelines are to facilitate something. So the infinitive phrase must follow R to form with guidelines to facilitate… If you separate them, with guidelines to would be left hanging.
Q — modifier of “entrepreneurs”: for manufacturing and service units
This prepositional phrase specifies which entrepreneurs are meant. It logically attaches to entrepreneurs, so it must follow P (the phrase that contains the word entrepreneurs).
Grammatical points that force this order
Subject–verb agreement: criteria is plural → correct verb is were. That verb appears in R, so R cannot come before S.
Syntactic dependency: with guidelines to (in R) requires a verb (facilitate) to complete its meaning — that verb is in P, so P must follow R.
Attachment: Q modifies entrepreneurs, so placing Q earlier (before the word entrepreneurs) either changes the meaning or creates an awkward/incorrect attachment.
