Why this procedure was chosen
VMS Ltd is the only supplier who is willing to maintain the legacy goods lift at the QEII Centre. In isolation, maintenance of this lift is not commercially viable and therefore the QEII Centre has decided to incorporate all lifts within the building in the contract. Without the goods lift the operation of the Centre for its intended purpose would be severely curtailed.
