After you install and configure Windows® Assessment Services, you can open the Windows® Assessment Services - Client (Windows ASC) on any computer that has network access to the Windows Assessment Services server. You can also start creating projects and assessing computers in your test lab. If you haven't added computers, drivers, and images to your inventory, see Evaluation Assets.
