For urgent technical support during normal office hours
An issue is considered to be urgent when it requires immediate attention and there is no available workaround. It will be preventing the normal operation of the Sequoia software, for example, the Sequoia software isn’t loading, users cannot access the Sequoia application, or Sequoia is not communicating with CDS, NCTS or CSPs.
Normal office hours for the ASM Service Desk are:
- From Monday to Friday between 8am and 7pm, and
- At weekends and bank holidays between 9am and 5pm
The telephone number to call is 01784 240400.
For urgent technical support outside of these times
Please call the ASM pager service and leave your name, company name and contact number along with a brief outline of your issue with the operator. Omitting any of the requested information could lead to your request for assistance being delayed. Once you have lodged your call a technician will call you back as soon as possible.
The pager number to call is 07623 984413
