What ASC Software does
ASC Software is a US-based supply chain execution software company founded in 1989 and headquartered in Beavercreek, Ohio. The company develops and sells ASCTrac, a modular suite comprising a Warehouse Management System (WMS), Manufacturing Execution System and Material Requirements Planning (MES/MRP), and Warehouse Control System (WCS), plus more than fifteen add-on modules covering demand planning, inventory, production scheduling, order management, shop floor tracking, yard management, Foreign Trade Zone operations, recall management, EDI/ASN, and asset/container tracking. ASCTrac is built on the Microsoft Windows and SQL Server stack with embedded EDI/ASN, web services, wireless real-time communications, and integrations with major ERP systems (Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, SAP, Oracle), multi-carrier shipping engines (ProShip, Malvern, Pitney Bowes), ecommerce platforms, and warehouse automation equipment (AS/RS, PLCs/IIoT, pick-to-light, carousels, conveyors). The company serves manufacturers, distributors, and third-party logistics providers in regulated verticals — principally Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical, 3PL, and Wholesale Distribution — claiming customers that include 'the largest food company, largest dairy producer, largest 3PL, and largest pharmaceutical distributor.'
ASC generates revenue through enterprise software licenses and recurring maintenance/support contracts sold via a consultative, demo-driven direct field sales motion targeting enterprise and mid-market buyers. Pricing is quote-based with no published rate cards, reflecting the configurable nature of WMS/MES implementations. Sales cycles are likely long and solution-selling oriented given the deeply configurable, rules-heavy product and the regulatory complexity of the target verticals. ASC emphasizes FDA/GMP-grade lot and serial traceability, Foreign Trade Zone compliance, and recall management as differentiators, and uniquely positions itself as a fully US-designed, tested, and supported vendor. In April 2026, ASC was acquired by Velociti Solutions, with CEO Derek Murray joining Velociti's leadership team; ASC now operates as a subsidiary with its ASCTrac and Assetminder platforms being integrated into Velociti's broader transport technology portfolio.

ASC Software competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Manhattan Associates: Manhattan Associates is a leading supply chain and omnichannel commerce software vendor offering Manhattan Active WM, a cloud-native WMS, alongside MES and WCS-adjacent capabilities. Directly comparable to ASC's WMS/MES/WCS suite but at vastly greater scale and global reach.
- Blue Yonder: Blue Yonder (formerly JDA) offers a comprehensive WMS, TMS, and supply chain planning platform used by many of the same enterprise manufacturers and 3PLs that ASC targets. Comparable in end-market and core WMS functionality but with far broader product breadth and cloud-native delivery.
- Körber Supply Chain Software: Körber (formerly HighJump) provides WMS, WCS, and supply chain execution software with strong 3PL and manufacturing exposure. Comparable to ASC across core WMS/WCS modules and target verticals, but with significantly larger global footprint and partner ecosystem.
- SAP Extended Warehouse Management: SAP EWM is an enterprise WMS tightly integrated with SAP S/4HANA, serving many of the same large manufacturers and distributors that ASC targets via its SAP ERP integration. A broad incumbent that competes for the same enterprise RFPs and bundles WMS with broader ERP suites.
Direct peers
- Softeon: Softeon offers a WMS and supply chain execution suite with deep 3PL and distribution functionality, including configurable billing and multi-client support that closely mirrors ASC's 3PL feature set. A closely aligned mid-market peer with comparable product positioning and target customers.
- Made4net: Made4net delivers WMS and supply chain execution software for distributors, manufacturers, and 3PLs with comparable feature breadth to ASCTrac. A direct peer of similar size and vertical focus, particularly strong in 3PL billing and warehouse execution.
- 3PL Central: 3PL Central (now part of ASCM-owned business) is a SaaS WMS purpose-built for third-party logistics providers, with multi-client billing and tenant management comparable to ASC's 3PL module. Strongly overlapping 3PL customer segment though narrower in scope than ASC's full WMS/MES suite.
Emerging players
- Logiwa: Logiwa provides a cloud-native WMS for fulfillment and 3PL operations with strong ecommerce and multi-channel capabilities. An emerging SaaS-native competitor that pressures the mid-market segment of ASC's customer base with modern UX and faster deployment.
- Fishbowl Inventory: Fishbowl offers manufacturing and inventory management software for QuickBooks and Xero users, targeting small and mid-sized manufacturers — an adjacent peer competing for the smaller end of ASC's target market with simpler, lower-cost deployment.
Others
- HighJump (now Körber) WMS: RedPrairie/HighJump WMS is a legacy on-premise WMS that historically competed in mid-market distribution and 3PL — overlapping with ASC's install base characteristics, though now consolidated into Körber's broader supply chain platform.
