APS Contract Services is one of Australia's largest temporary suspended access providers. The company specialises in heavy duty space frame platforms, which are commonly known as Technitruss Platforms.

APS is currently completing the West Gate Bridge strengthening Project where it is contracted to provide suspended access platforms for the work on strengthening the underside of the bridge. 16 suspended access platforms have been provided offering 7000 sqm of suspended work area, capacity for platform mounted cranes which lift materials and equipment in and out of the worksite and full lunching and toilet facilities on the platforms.

APS says that the suspended access platforms at the West Gate Bridge are the largest access project in Australia at the moment.
