Vertrans Lift Surveys and Certification Limited was born out of a desire to provide to clients a specialised Vertical Transportation Survey, Certification and Consultancy Service which focuses directly on individual client needs.
The company is owned and managed by Ralph Abercrombie, whose vast experience has enabled Vertrans to be approved by the Territorial Authorities to carry out Lift, Escalator and Travelator IQP surveys and inspections as called for in the Building Act 2004 and subsequent amendments.
Ralph is IQP (Independent Qualified Person) registered and holds a CBIP (certification board of Inspection Personnel) qualification for new and existing Lift Certification.
Ralph brings a lifetime of experience in this specialist discipline, obtained through proven work experience in both the contracting and consulting fields throughout New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific.
He is a full number of the International Association of Elevator Engineers.
