Technical Development
CTCI follows its tradition of high-tech services
and is dedicated to introducing and developing
innovative technologies. Our advanced technologies
cover processes, supply chain, construction, and
commissioning. We have thus cemented our place
among the global competition of EPC (Engineering-
Procurement-Construction) turnkey projects. In terms
of process innovation, we have information integration,
intelligent management, mobile applications, visual
applications, system transfer, and Big Data technologies.
For design, we have production process, civil
engineering, equipment, instrument and control, pipeline,
and electrical engineering technologies. Development
for supply chain includes equipment management,
intelligent information display, and logistical management.
Civil engineering technologies include construction
management, modular applications, 4D visualization,
scaffolding management, HSE action and warehouse
management. For commissioning technologies, we have
the commissioning expert system and flawless start-up
program. The introduction and development of these
engineering technologies not only help enhancing the
competitiveness of the industry, but also drives the
globalization of domestic engineering technologies.
Furthermore, we have extended our environmental
visions to our contractors to create win-win situations for
CTCI, partners, stakeholders, society, and the environment
and to contribute to the sustainability of our ecosystem. In
2015, 54% of CTCI's R&D budget went into environmental
investment, totaling NTD 43,857,180 .
