Since completing the Hotel Indonesia, the first
overseas construction project by a Japanese company after
WWII, Taisei has been involved in construction projects in
a wide variety of fields in over 50 countries. The Taisei
Corporation Group's global network has grown to the point
where it now has local subsidiaries and affiliates in Asia,
America, Europe, Africa.
The projects Taisei undertakes through its overseas subsidiaries
and affiliates are supported by a world-class research and
development center, a design group ranked as one of Japanfs
best architectural offices, and the Company's Engineering
Division, which applies the most advanced construction technology.
Using these technologies, Taisei has accumulated a long list
of successful projects. These include civil engineering projects,
such as the Cirata Hydroelectric Power Station in Indonesia
and Toyota Proving Ground in Arizona, and construction projects,
such as the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, numerous semiconductor
and other IT-related production facilities, and pharmaceutical
and other biotechnology-related production facilities. These
projects showcase the most advanced civil engineering and
construction technologies available anywhere in the world.
Taisei has expertise in not only the construction of buildings
and facilities, but also real estate, urban planning and various
other business areas. The Company offers a wide array of services
covering everything from project planning, profitability analysis,
site acquisition, acquisition of various permits, design,
and engineering to facility operation and maintenance. It
has won accolades not only for the construction work it has
performed in Indonesia for an industrial park in West Java
Province and for office, hotel and other development projects
in America and the United Kingdom, but also for its ability
to support all aspects of these projects.
Moving into the future, BOT (Build Operation Transfer) and
PFI (Private Finance Initiative) infrastructure construction
schemes, which are already being used overseas, will likely
gain importance in Japan, as well. Taisei, therefore, believes
that transferring expertise back to Japan is an important
mission of involvement in such overseas projects.
As a general contractor, Taisei is always searching for new
opportunities. The Companyfs goal is to apply its overall
capabilities, centered on construction, to meet not just the
genuine needs of its clients, but also those of the countries
and localities where projects are located, and to contribute
globally through projects that lead to the creation of rich
living environments.
