Please help me figure out how to make an ASP.NET webservice accessible through a website hosted on an IIS server (hexbear.net)

This is for work and ASP.NET and IIS are the technologies my organization want me to use, so I can't change those.

So, I have an ASP.NET MVC webservice. When I start it up, I get the following message:

info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[14]
      Now listening on: http://localhost:5000/
info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[0]
      Application started. Press Ctrl+C to shut down.
info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[0]
      Hosting environment: Production
info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[0]
      Content root path: [Path]

Path removed to avoid exposing sensitive info. I can access the site just fine on the server it's hosted on by going to http://localhost:5000/. However, it needs to be accessible from other devices. The machine it's hosted on also has an IIS server with a company website, and ideally, I should be able to access this webservice through a URL on the company site. I'm not sure how to do this, though. I've tried dropping it into the site's wwwroot folder and registering it as an application, but that didn't seem to work (I tried entering all of the obvious URLs from another device but only got 404s, and I can confirm that the site itself is accessible from that device).

Alright, so I can confirm the following:

The ASP.NET service is registered to an application pool.
The pool it's in is started.
When I right click it in IIS and choose "Manage Application -> Browse", it opens the URL https://[Site Home]/[App Name]. However, I get the site's "page not found" redirect, so something's still missing.
