Some of the APS milestones include APS take on a larger fabrication facility in the Western suburbs of Melbourne in 2007, allowing the business to start work on the design and manufacture of our proprietary, modular Aluminium Suspended Access Platform (Technitruss). 2009 was another milestone year for APS, winning the D&C contract for the West Gate Bridge Strengthening Project to supply and install our Technitruss Suspended Access Platforms.. At the time the project was the largest suspended access project in the southern hemisphere (if not the world) and consisted of around 7000m² of in-house manufactured APS Technitruss System.

2016 saw APS awarded a contract to supply, design, erect and dismantle the one of the largest scaffolds ever built in Melbourne that was completely encapsulated and came with some real innovation to allow the the Flinders Street Train Station to continue to operate during the restoration works.

Other significant projects and milestones in recent years include the Caulfield to Dandenong Sky Rail, Metro Tunnel Early works project, the Glenn Shopping Centre, TED at Monash University, the West Gate Tunnel Project and the Iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge.
