We, The TTSP-ians

By: Vance Madelo The Tsuneishi group, with Tsuneishi Technical Services Philippines (Inc.) being one of the group's affiliates, is responsibly designing and building ships that are in strict compliance of the standards set forth by the ClassNK, a ship classification society that ensures safety of life and property at sea, as well as prevention of pollution to the marine environment. That said, Tsuneishi-made vessels are aptly considered safe for the health of both environment and the crews who operate within the confines of these ships. The TTSP Design Engineers and staffs are constantly informed of the current ClassNK code updates to orient them of the latest developments in the shipbuilding industry guidelines.

By: Vance Madelo Situated at the northwestern part of Cebu province and with a pool of engineering and drafting professionals in its employ, Tsuneishi Technical Services, Phils. is the chief ship designer in the Philippines. It has steadily been growing from a humble beginning of eight (8) initial employees in 1992 to over 400 design engineers, draftsman, office staffs, drivers and maintenance personnel combined as for this writing. What most people are wrong about is that they usually associate TTSP as a shipbuilding company. It is not.

It specializes in detail designs of bulk carriers, tankers and other ocean-going vessels. It is also involved in designing details of engineering, manufacturing, oil and biogas plants. Currently, it has plans of gradually expanding its workforce, capability, and office...
