How we can help you during the COVID-19 pandemic

 

Not business as usual

As much as possible, we are trying to maintain business as usual. But we recognize that now is anything but usual. During this time, we are here to assist you in many ways.

 

Free VPN configuration consultation 

If you need help setting up Work From Home (WFH) for employees at your company, please contact the aSa IT department for details. We can help you to establish a Virtual Private Network (VPN) so that employees can safely and securely access your company systems. You may already have an appropriate firewall device in place (such as a SonicWall), otherwise you will need to purchase one. You may also need to purchase some additional VPN licenses. aSa will waive the initial consultation service fees for VPN access configuration. Contact aSa for assistance.

 

Free aSa software licenses for home use

aSa ex software can be licensed for home use a few different ways: either a check-in/check-out process with concurrent user licensing from your central server or by issuing a new license for the computer at home. aSa will waive any fees associated with temporary home licenses. Contact aSa if you need assistance with either of these two methods. For customers already using aSa.Studio, no change in licensing is needed; just log in through your browser on your home computer.

 

System Backups

As always, we recommend that you have reliable backups of your important data. If you are unsure if you are set up properly, please contact aSa for assistance.

 

Free webinars 

aSa will be hosting free webinars for our customers, providing concise and helpful training sessions on our current aSa ex Windows-based software. More details about these webinars including topics, dates, and times will be coming soon.

 

Customer Advisory Boards

We have been busy designing, developing, and implementing our new cloud‑based aSa.Studio software. Basic functionality from Order Entry (Bar Listing) through to Shipping has been completed. Next, we are working on connecting our CAD applications, Estimating, and Rebar Financials. We will be increasing our communication with our Customer Advisory Boards in various areas including CAD, Projects (Estimating, Pricing, Contract Management, and Field Placing), and Accounts Receivable / Billing. If you are interested in assisting aSa with our design process, please contact us.
