California Institute of Technology (Caltech) with a B.S. in

Science;  Business courses at UCLA, Instructor in hi-tech manufacturing

techniques at USC and Stanford.

and radio compass on military aircraft. Transferred to Fourth Air Force

Headquarters in San Francisco. Trained as IBM Tabulating Machine Operator.

EMPLOYMENT EXPERIENCE IN JAPAN: Twenty-nine years in Japan with "Long Term

Resident" Visa. Employed by Barclay & Co., Tokyo, Aug. 1971 to Nov. 1977.

Formed International Technical Trading, Inc. in 1978 and serve as its

President. INTEC imports consumer products from the OECD countries.

 

Also serve as President of Procurement Services International, Inc., formed

in 1981. Until July 1999, "PSI" provided translations of Standards issued

by the Government of Japan (GOJ), Telecommunications Interconnect Type

Approvals, etc. More importantly, PSI translated those government tenders

which are open to foreign competitive bidding under GATT Government

Procurement Agreement (GPA), starting in 1981 (subsequently WTO). PSI also

provided contract award notices, which became available under the 1987

revision of the GPA. PSI's tender and award notices were published daily in

The Supplement to the Official Journal of the EU (OJ-S) and OJ-S CD-ROM,

and posted on Tenders Electronic Daily (TED), an on-line database

maintained by the EU.

 

In 1982, established "Govpurch", first on-line database of Japanese

any organization formatting tenders for OJ-S. Our work is normally

"shipped" via Internet to the EU by 15:30 daily on the same date that it is

published in "Kampo" (the Official Gazette of The Government of Japan). It

was received in Luxembourg before the start of business the same calendar

day and in print in two to three days. (PSI-Japan has a large stake in the

stability of the Internet!)

 

As a direct result of PSI's integrity and its reliable, high quality work

over the prior fourteen years, in 1995 the EU appointed PSI as Sales Agent

for EU Official books, periodicals, CD-ROM's and data bases (such as TED).
