First Federal Foray
ASCI has been providing supply chain and asset management consulting and services to commercial and government customers since 1999, but this is the company’s first federal contract.

Through this contract, ASCI is responsible for total supply chain solutions from sourcing, procurement, warehousing, arranging transportation, and delivery of office supplies, tools and hardware, houseware, furniture, and cleaning products to military and civilian federal customers in and around Alaska.
