At the construction site of ALP's new engineering project, one can always see the tall figure of Nick, wearing a safety helmet and moving around. The affability and enthusiasm displayed by him make him the perfect representative of the Product Development Department. Since joining ALP in 2016, he has played a crucial role in construction projects across various parks.

​

From being misunderstood by family to gaining acceptance, the completion of the Yangmei Park breaks stereotypes.
 

Nick holds a master's degree in Water Resources from the Civil Engineering Department at Chung Yuan University. Despite high expectations from his family for him to join a large corporation or public institution, he took a different path. Intrigued by ALP's recruitment advertisement, he applied out of curiosity, wondering, "Why is a logistics company hiring construction management personnel?" Upon closer inspection, he realized that ALP's services, scale, and scope far exceeded his initial expectations.

 

When Nick decisively chose to join ALP, it almost sparked a family revolution. At that time, ALP was not well-known, and people mistakenly thought it was a simple logistics and transportation company. It was only after Nick explained that the company was involved in warehouse construction that his family began to understand. However, they still couldn't comprehend why Nick, with his capabilities, would choose to build warehouses. Despite the conflicts and doubts along the way, Nick persisted. Finally, with the completion of the Yangmei Park, Nick allowed his family to witness firsthand that warehouses could be more than just storage spaces. Changing an entire industry requires a unique perspective from the very beginning, challenging conventional impressions.

​

The sense of achievement at work lies not in the size of the project but in contributing to the success of the team.

 

In the product development department's construction and electromechanical team at ALP, each member plays a managerial role, overseeing every detail of construction projects. Typically, construction projects involve three main roles: 1) the client-side, providing spatial requirements; 2) the supervisory side, inspecting and ensuring the quality of project outcomes; and 3) the construction side, divided into roles for building and executing mechanical and electrical components. However, ALP's role positioning differs from these common industry roles. Instead, the team often acts as a bridge between construction firms, clients, and supervisors, facilitating communication and resource integration to make the warehouse construction process more competitive.

​

Nick's role involves connecting various stakeholders, relying on pre-analysis to achieve effective communication and integrating difficult points in the engineering process. By focusing on the main issues, he encourages subcontractors to think about feasible solutions. The use of "design thinking" introduced by ALP is employed to diverge and converge ideas, ensuring that execution surpasses expectations.

​

For Nick, team members are like family. When he first joined, as a newcomer, he received support from others. As he gained capabilities, he naturally became more willing to take on responsibilities. His motivation is not about showing off but rather a belief in his capabilities and the willingness of the company and team to entrust him with tasks.

​

Nick values not only completing his own tasks but also the ability to be trusted by the company, taking the lead in completing missions, and assisting colleagues, vendors, and clients in achieving common goals. This ability allows him to share the burdens of others. Looking back, from being a novice in society to now taking on responsibilities to complete projects, the trust placed in Nick is a significant affirmation and the true source of his sense of accomplishment.
