ASC Associates

What ASC Associates does

ASC Associates, Inc. is a privately held business and digital transformation consulting firm founded in 2001 and headquartered in Aurora, Ohio, with a secondary office in New York. The firm delivers a portfolio of professional services spanning Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation and optimization on SAP and Oracle platforms, Program and Project Management using PMP-certified resources, Systems Design and Development, Data Analytics/AI/ML advisory, Business Transformation (Lean, Six Sigma, Change Management), Business Process Reengineering, and Strategic Development including supply chain and logistics strategy. Underlying technical components referenced include Robotic Process Automation for purchase order workflows and a proprietary supply chain dashboard prototype providing In Transit Visibility for military logistics. The company does not sell a packaged software product; engagements are project-based and scope-driven, priced per engagement with multi-year contract cadences, and sold through consultative direct engagement with enterprise and government buyers in aerospace and defense, pharmaceutical and life sciences, consumer products and retail, healthcare, manufacturing, and energy and utilities. Founded by Shashi Jina (President) and Ranjan Jina (Vice President of Operations), the leadership has been reinforced by federal-logistics veterans Mark Johnson (Chief Growth Officer, retired USAF/DLA) and Michael Scott (Strategic Advisor, former DLA Vice Director, joined Spring 2023), positioning the firm to compete for defense logistics and ERP re-competes alongside commercial transformation work for marquee clients such as the U.S. Air Force, SDDC, GSK, IKEA, Komatsu, Sony, and Honda.
