In 1977, Jack Shaw became Assistant Treasurer for Martin Oil Service Inc., and furthered his experience with business processes and information flow by designing and implementing new cash management and accounts receivable systems for this $200 million oil wholesaler.

In 1979, Jack began working with MSA, where he had responsibility for product design and marketing for all supply chain management systems. His responsibility was to understand the business processes and needs of clients and prospects in dozens of industries and ensure that they were addressed in the designs of MSA's systems.
