"Building
a Sustainable Business in the Changing
Government Market"
Abe Xiong
Government Contractors
Association
The government contracting industry is constantly changing.
It changes as the economy changes.
It changes with new political administrations.
It changes with new legislations.
It changes with foreign competitions and foreign policy shifts.
It changes with new technologies.
It changes as the wind blows hither and there.
As a business owner, you must plan ahead and put up your wet
figure in the wind to keep a pulse as the direction which the wind is
blowing. Your long term
success depends on your ability to forecast upcoming changes and being
able to make intuitive business decisions.
