    Summary of the research paper:

    A 5 page paper discussing changes in this industry and making suggestions for how it needs to approach its promising future. All of the leading manufacturers of electrical equipment face the threat of competition that does not already exist. If the US companies will embrace and move forward with changes that are inevitable anyway, they can find themselves much more favorably positioned to provide new technologies and its machinery support to domestic power companies and the world’s newly-industrialized nations. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

    Unformatted Sample Text from the Research Paper:
    The US electrical equipment manufacturers industry has undergone significant changes over the past decade. Now that it has adjusted to those changes and largely has realigned itself, another generation  of electrical equipment is on the horizon. This report is specific to that part of the electrical equipment industry serving businesses generating electrical power.  There are many competitors in the industry, but the leading four comprise 96 percent of its business. General Electric (GE) is the leading competitor, of course, with  a 66 percent market share in gas and steam turbines. Paris-based Alstom is second with 25 percent, Siemens Aktien carries 5 percent of the global market. CIT Group,  the remnants of Tyco Capital Corporation, is the third-largest company in the industry, but it only finances electrical equipment transactions and does not manufacture any equipment.  This certainly is not a paper about GE, but as the industry leader and by the margin it leads its competitors, to a large extent the actions  of GE determine the course of the industry. GE also makes the greatest contribution to research and development to direct the changes likely to occur in the industry within  three to five years in the future. The Traditional Supply Chain With the three leading competitors in the industry located in different countries  - GE in the US, Alstom in France and Siemens in Germany - the industry itself is a global one by default. Each of these companies operates in several  countries of the world, and each deals with a number of international governments as the developing world seeks to upgrade or even establish an electrical power infrastructure that can support
