Every system except the three Armor systems requires Techs; 20-3=17*3=51. Per shift probably comes from the suggestion that Military Vessels usually carry more crew than necessary for damage control and casualty replacement purposes. Technically you could get away with the minimum of 51 technicians, but having multiple shifts gives you enough extra to handle emergencies. (I believe that USNavy vessels usually have two shifts, BTW).
