I have an APC SmartUPS unit here which, as of today, is indicating that the
battery needs changing. There may be an issue with the UPS hardware other than
the battery - I wouldn't rule that out by any means.

Who is reliable and experienced at UPS servicing in Melbourne?

 
If it is just a battery you could do that yourself, just remove the cover and unplug the Sealed Lead Acid battery (SLA) measure it and get a replacement from a local battery supplier or Jaycar has them as well, also as well as size confirm voltage but in most cases it is 12 volt 

That would save you money if it is just the battery if not then  you could look at a service/repair

Of course this is reliant on your skills with electronics, if you dont feel comfortable dealing with electronics then a company is the way to go, I cant help with one as I repair that sort of stuff myself YMMV
 
It's a home office environment if that makes any difference.
