Wellmade Motors & Development Corp.
Touching Lives Beyond Profit
In a company where workers do not have a punch card and yet they exhibit excellent work habits, one can assume that
the company has significantly touched their lives and they are giving back what the company has given them - trust and
dignity. Wellmade is one such company.
“When I started trading as a business in 1988, growth
was simply nowhere to be found. I saw the opportunity
in metalworking, but all odds were against me since I
was told I am not an Engineer.” These are the words of
Philip Tan, President and CEO of Wellmade Group of
Companies. His achievements and numerous awards
have proven all his critics wrong, including his father.
Wellmade Motors and Development Corporation is the
first Filipino machine shop with an ISO-90012008 Global
Certification. It was twice awarded by former President
Gloria Macapagal Arroyo with the Most Outstanding
Achievements in Productivity, Quality and Innovations.
DTI also awarded Wellmade as one of the Best
Outstanding Consumer Welfare Company for three
consecutive years.
Mr. Tan was named as one of the Fifty Men and Women
of Science in the Philippines by DOST and the Most
Outstanding Alumni of the University of San Carlos in
the Field of Entrepreneurship. Wellmade was an ECOP
finalist as an Employer of the Year and the Most Socially
Responsible Entrepreneur of the Year 2008, an award
given by the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
In 2009, the company was a recipient of an award given
by DOLE as Most Outstanding in the field of Productivity.
In 2010, the Metals Industry Research Development
Center (MIRDC) awarded Engr. Tan, the Metalworker
Man of the Year.
His many recognitions and awards is a testimony to hard
work and commitment in achieving his goals and advocacy
on productivity, quality and corporate social responsibility.
Philip, as he is fondly called, utilized human resource
competency and professional management to mold his

employees to become responsible, accountable and
efficient workers. To gain as much knowledge and knowhow
in his area of business, he attended various trainings
conducted by government and private agencies. Unlike
in most companies where the staff is sent, he personally
attended these sessions. As a management sponsored
scholar, he also attended local and international trainings.
Wellmade Motors and Development Corporation is an
engineering-based enterprise that specializes in remanufacturing
of metal component parts, on-site/ in-place
machining, hot/cold fusion welding and machining/
fabrication of high precision parts for manufacturing
and transport industries.
Due to the company’s wide exposure, the encounter
with DOST as a government partner was inevitable.
The objectives of applying for SET-UP were focused on
expanding the existing metalworking capabilities from
customized parts to high precision and the fabrication
of gear parts to serve not only the transport but also the
manufacturing and power plant industries. Global
competitiveness is also desired through modernization
of machinery and technology as well as developing the
competencies of workers.
It was through SET-UP that the precision radial drill
and tangential automatic gear hobbing machines were
acquired. Profitability increased twice its targeted
percentage. Not only were the existing ones retained
but many more were added to its long list of satisfied
customers.
With its accomplishments through SET-UP, DOST
extended a grant to Wellmade in its effort to develop,
the first of its kind Filipino Metalworking Software, in the
Philippines. With four plants, including its franchises, these
facilities are connected to the server in Cebu for real-time
transactions covering ERP modules in Preventive Maintenance,
HRM, CRM, Supply Chain, Asset Management,
Operations, Production and others, except Accounting.
Late in 2010, Wellmade has franchised its Metalworking
Enterprise inaugurating its first outlet in Davao City. By
the second half of 2011, another one will be opened in
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is currently conducting similar
negotiations in two cities in Visayas and Mindanao. By
2015, Wellmade expects to open ten franchises, both in
the Philippines and in Southeast Asian countries, exporting
highly skilled Filipino workers.
For now, Wellmade continues to practice its standard of
excellence. It is working on Social Accountability 8000, a
Global Certification, the highest form of certification that
a company can achieve in the Field of Corporate Social
Responsibility, an act of giving back its blessings to God
and country.
There is no stopping for Wellmade. It has definitely tasted
the glorious fruits of its humble beginnings. DOST made
things happen, a partnership of a lifetime.
