About AS Management Services
AS Management Services is a board-level strategic advisory firm that works exclusively with B2B technical and industrial companies, including manufacturers of industrial washing installations, automotive suppliers, recycling and waste-processing companies, and high-tech scale-ups. The firm is based in Enschede, the Netherlands, and operates internationally, serving clients across Europe on a location-independent basis. AS Management Services helps technical founders and executive teams in three specific ways: first, by reviewing and negotiating high-value B2B contracts before they are signed, to identify and remove clauses that erode margin or create legal and financial exposure — a service the firm calls Project Assurance; second, by structuring market entry, positioning, and outbound acquisition strategy for companies selling technical products or services into new B2B markets; third, by designing internal organizational structures and operational systems that allow a company to scale without every decision routing through its founder. The firm's clients are typically founder-led businesses between five and fifty employees that have outgrown ad-hoc processes but do not yet have in-house strategic or commercial leadership at board level. AS Management Services operates on a monthly retainer model rather than fixed-scope projects, offering either ongoing strategic guidance or intensive hands-on sparring and integration support during periods of active scaling or high-stakes deal negotiation.
