Why AST?
AST delivers on the promises that everyone makes but few follow through on. We make sure our employees, partners, and customers are taken care of. We are ethical and fair in all our dealings. We plan ahead and work hard to ensure that our employees are set up for success, that we keep our commitments to our partners, and that we deliver the services and support our customers need, on-schedule, for a reasonable price.
We are loyal to employees and put compensation above profit.
Profit is a lower priority than workforce benefits and stability. We do not chase contracts that would undermine our ability to pay our employees a competitive salary. Our employees tend to want to stay with us, with over 98% of our skilled employees choosing to stay with us every year, so we’re doing something right.
We offer outstanding benefits. We work hard to provide our personnel outstanding pay and benefits. We structure our compensation to maximize its value to our people, with accelerated access to retirement plans and multiple benefits options to that our people can select the best option for their specific needs.
Our managers have real, relevant experience and make good decisions. Our managers are not just managers, they are SME themselves, and they understand the environments where our people work. From our president down, most managers have extensive experience in the military, and all have proven expertise in the management and administrative tasks involved in sustaining our SME workforce.
Our clients often select us for follow-on work. This is important because contract stability drives workforce stability. It means that we are selecting the right personnel for the work, and those personnel are succeeding. Contracting companies cannot make people succeed – they can only make sure they’re not making that harder, or impossible. AST only pursues contracts with realistic requirements, and our bids are structured to ensure that workforce compensation aligns with the work on the ground. We avoid ash and trash situations that would undermine our company’s reputation among our customers and our employees.
We are loyal to our employees, partners, and vendors. Trust cannot be installed or bolted on. It must be earned and it grows slowly over time. We take our reputation seriously, and we do not compromise our integrity for any reason, in any area. We are deliberate in making commitments and dedicated to following through. If you are a potential partner or are seeking to join our company, know that we are honest and fair.
AST offers a wide range of training and instruction courses and programs, primarily in military subjects.
