Established on January 27, 2003, at its headquarters, Shanghai, the company developed Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) solutions via applying security practices, structured global sourcing methodologies based on the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI).
The company initially traded as "Sheng-feng Co., Ltd." with a registered capital of 4.5 million US dollars and rapidly grew to become one of China's leading IT service companies.[2] As of Dec 2007, the company sat on a US$17.92 million revenue base (from US$1.75 million in 2003) and had 8 offices globally.
Since its founding in 2003 with 15 employees, the company reported a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 89%. It achieved Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Level 3 and began the process for CMMI Level 5 certification. In China, the company is noted for its corporate branding and its association with local entrepreneurship.
On 28 July 2008, due to business development growth and to better serve international markets, once known as SSG (Safesoft Global), the company was re-branded to Seioglobal.
Critical times

In doing so, the organization foresaw the need for rapid organizational growth in order to survive the on coming competitive times. During these times, the company was heavily driven by the entrepreneurship spirit.[2]
However, it was not satisfied and reorganized the company via its Japanese roots to diversify it and focused on intensifying independent innovations within Shanghai's surrounding 2nd tier cities such as Wuxi and Jiaxing.[3]
Upgrading for competition
For developing and attracting software development, information services to China's developing metropolitan cities, the company quickly adhered to the nation's "Eleventh Five-Year Plan." Such actions were to shape the strategy for the company for its coming challenging years.[2] and in 2003, the company invested in several strategic 2nd tier metropolitan cities in China and opened up offices in Tokyo and Osaka in Japan.
