Stitch,

<<Somehow I feel that getting and keeping customers will become increasingly important as the elements of global enterprise consolidate in the next twenty years.>>

<<There can be no doubt about this statement IMO. I believe we will see a continuance of the trend towards smaller supplier lists and closer, more strategic, relationships as a means of groping with a more complex global business scenario. This will require unheard of levels of dedication to customers needs and wants IMO. Dedicated production lines, support reps, and spare part inventorys for example. >>

And integrated planning systems. The swift, profitable firms share data on supply and demand that used to be sacrosanct.
