The suggestions I made were taken from... ... The New Penguin Dictionary of Abbreviations (2000).

laten staan Het doelpubliek zal wel weten waar die afko voor staat en anders aan klant vragen!

(volgens mij is het: Amsterdamned Stew-Art Professionals! [uit: altijd lastig!])
Laurens Sipahelut Jan 22, 2014:
Does... ... accepté sous protêt (French: accepted under protest) or American selling price (USA) make sense? Even less likely possibilities: aerospace plane, Astronomical Society of the Pacific, and Anglo-Saxon Protestant (USA).
Dave Greatrix Jan 22, 2014:
Location @asker - Could this refer to a building, section of a building or location? It may help if you could tell us more about the type of document (Bill of Quantities, property auction, property description?)
F Scott Ophof (X) Jan 22, 2014:
Association of Software Professionals? More context would definitely be appreciated, methinks.
Andre de Vries (asker) Jan 22, 2014:
This is a lease document. I don't think it is specific to this facility. It might be a manufacturer called A.S.P. but that is just a guess.
Laurens Sipahelut Jan 22, 2014:
Could it be... jargon specific to the facility?

een a.s.p. is een aansluitpunt

see the discussion here: http://www.klusidee.nl/Forum/about51062.html

"Maximaal aantal aansluitpunten per groep
(...)
Sommige zeggen dat ook de verlichtingspunten moeten worden geteld als aansluitpunt, andere zeggen weer dat alleen de wcd's geteld moeten worden.
(...)
2 wcd onder 1 afdekraam is 1 asp
1 lichtpunt is1 asp
(...)
Tot een totaal aantal van 6 groepen tel je dus de asp'en (bij 1 groep 9 aansluitpunten, 2 groepen 15 asp'en, 3 groepen 18 asp'en, bij 4-6 groepen 21 asp'en).
"
etc.

agree freekfluweel : You're getting on my turf now and I don't think I really like you anymore,... ik zat ergens geheel verkeerd aan te denken maar de minieme context was dan ook misleidend... Good Job! ;-)))

Ha ha! Ja, ik begeef me op glad ijs hier ;-) Ik overwoog even om het in de D-box te plaatsen maar dan gaat iemand anders met mijn suggestie aan de haal ;-))) Dus toch maar buiten mijn vakgebied gedingest... Tx, Freek!
