ASP was established in 1977. ASP was established in 1977, initially as an importer of computer equipment, but we were soon designing products to sell under our own name, and undertaking design work for others. ASP's first barcode product, the Barcode Interface, was released in 1985. The BCI had a printer interface, and decoded barcodes as well as printing barcode labels when data was sent back fro
m the host computer. The BCI set the tone for the innovative range of products to come: portable barcode readers that could also function as fixed readers, multiple interface readers, networked production tracking and time and attendance terminals, and a range of contact, CCD and laser scanners. The company uses its supply, design, programming and fabrication skills to realise the potential of technologies including Barcode, RFID, Smartcard, Magnetic Stripe, MICR, OCR, iButton, Web, Ethernet, RF Wireless, Bluetooth, GPRS and GSM Data Transfer. Hardware products, designed and built in Australia include Portable Barcode Readers, Ethernet Terminals, and Time and Attendance Terminals. ASP has developed packaged Software Solutions for Stocktake, Warehouse, Inventory Management (SWIM), Time and Attendance, Asset Tracking, Barcode Label Printing, Rapid Radio Frequency Network Development, and GSM Data Transfer.

There are numerous other innovative projects, plus our own system solutions, that establish our capabilities.
