Things are afoot that are affecting how business is being done today. Dizzying advances in computer and telecommunication technology, the opening of international markets and cooperation between governments of different countries make things possible today undreamed of not that long ago. The ideal of big business and the power of those that run them is now becoming a thing of the past. |

But a hundred years ago, big changes were happening too. Railroads, telegraph and telephone networks, motorways coupled with new techniques of mass production and management accounting, made it possible for those with the right vision to build large integrated companies and dominate the business landscape. These companies became the multi-national enterprises of the past we have become familiar with, global giants. |

But today, global sourcing of capital and goods, time to market pressures, along with improvements in communications and logistics make these companies too big and slow to be on the front edge of new developments. Instead smaller, more entrepreneurial companies, companies that are making creative use of global markets, outsourcing and technology are the ones on the forefront. These companies are S’GAP clients. |
