Ascent Technology gives you power to optimize your resources, to operate effectively, and to control your costs

Software solutions from Ascent Technology provide powerful tools that help you determine which resources you need and when you need them, so you can have the right resources in the right places at the right times at the right cost to operate efficiently and cost-effectively.

Since our founding more than 20 years ago by members of the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Ascent Technology has helped organizations deploy costly resources as efficiently, effectively, and economically as possible. Our products combine cutting-edge research with rock-solid engineering to solve complex resource optimization, scheduling, and deployment problems for labor-intensive organizations, such as airlines, airports, casinos, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, resorts, retail stores, and security providers.

Our products manage complex operating environments and handle dynamic resource demands, particularly in the face of unforeseen situations and unavoidable disruptions that require immediate response. They create the best plans to meet forecasted demand for resources and then turn plans into actions by deploying workers and physical resources in real time in response to actual conditions while minimizing delays, costs, and unnecessary work. By providing the right information at the right times, our products enable you to make the most appropriate decisions in both normal and abnormal situations. Our products not only detect potential problems that could disrupt future operations, but also recommend, in real time, the best operational responses to potential problems. The return on investment can be surprisingly high, and the payback period surprisingly short.
