We maintain a sales office in Beltsville, MD, between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore just south of Columbia, MD. This location is convenient to many large customers, airports, UPS, and truck transportation terminals. Telephone "tie lines" for Baltimore, DC, and Northern Virginia provide almost all our mid-Atlantic customers with local telephone access to our office. A nationwide toll-free number (800) 950-8555 and Email; asicoax@applied-specialties.com provides customers and sales representatives with easy telephone access.
ASI implements a philosophy that availability and appropriate pricing are a primary requirement in generating sales. Typical initial manufacturer's stock includes at least a "design in" quantity of all standard catalog items that can reasonably be expected to sell. We maintain an extensive inventory that is tailored to our customer's requirements. While annual inventory turns are an important consideration to avoid obsolescent or obsolete items in inventory, we use a combination of annual turns and individual item margin in sizing purchases and inventory. Items with generic application, identified usage, and longer factory lead times are stocked in quantities and ordered with purchase lead times so as to maintain an uninterrupted availability to the customer.
