About our speaker: Gerard
Buhosky GASBOY INTERNATIONAL Jerry Buhosky is the purchasing
manager for Hydromotion, Inc.. He has over 20 years experience in manufacturing
performing various inventory, shop floor, planning, and buying functions. His
greatest experience is in the supervision of a sheet metal fabrication area. In
1994, he was on a team charged with increasing the production capacity at
Gasboy International by 30 percent. Through a complete factory rearrangement
and implementation of a setup reduction program, this goal was achieved. The
setup reduction program eliminated 75 percent of the time previously dedicated

with that technique as well. Jerry has consulted for the Department of Defense,
as well as the private sector, doing setup reduction and Kaizen training. Jerry
is President of the Lehigh Valley APICS Chapter and has been an APICS member
