As we look forward to an exciting and innovative year here at ASD, we’ve taken some time to look back on all the significant moments and benchmarks from last year.

The “ASD Extra Mile Award” gives our employees the opportunity to commend one another for a job well done. This award fosters positivity in the office and helps us to spotlight employees who go above and beyond to do a good job at ASD. Our staff appreciates being able to recognize their fellow colleagues and the different ways they contribute positively to ASD.

As we welcome the magical Christmas season here at ASD, we wish you & your family the same joy and excitement we feel during this time of year.

Christmas, New Years Day and the entire holiday season is fully staffed with back up support so you can enjoy those days knowing your phones are always protected by ASD.
