Teeing Off With Passion

When it comes to his job, Eric Phua is a passionate man. So much so, that when the HR department at TEE International asked its employees to list their hobbies, Eric didn’t hesitate. He knew exactly where his enthusiasm lay. Eric listed ‘work’. “Yeah, it’s work,” he laughs. “It’s what drives me, what motivates me. It’s definitely my passion.”

It’s to be expected, really, when you consider TEE International’s Deputy Group Managing Director was instrumental in establishing the company he is so passionate about. He was one of just three family members who built the business from an HDB flat in Singapore, more than 25 years ago, to an integration juggernaut offering world-class services in engineering, real estate and infrastructure throughout Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand.

Its engineering subsidiaries, Trans Equatorial Engineering and PBT Engineering, provide one-stop solutions for large-scale and complex building projects for office, commercial and institutional buildings, factories, residential apartments, and research and infrastructure facilities. One-stop design and building packages with elite project management services are also offered to meet client requirements and expectations.

Many of these are repeat customers, returning time and time again for TEE’s renowned quality service and care. They include SMRT, CapitaLand, Citibank NA, Las Vegas Sands, Changi Airport Group, National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University and Hyundai Engineering and Construction.

This year, TEE Engineering announced it had landed S$65 million worth of engineering contracts from February to July, boosting its outstanding order book to S$280 million.
