About DAST Consulting Services:

DAST Consulting Services (DCS) helps educational institutions optimize their operations. With a mission to enhance the efficiency of school management, DCS focuses on providing data-driven solutions to improve student outcomes and streamline administrative processes.

About the relationship:

DCS's Chief of Staff, Andrew Hughes, reached out to Edlink after his team created a free developer account to explore Edlink’s functionality. Following a series of email exchanges, Andrew looped in DCS’s CTO Drew Hansen to meet with Edlink’s Danny Kopack to explore how DCS could automate and scale their operations through integrations.

During the meeting, Drew explained that DCS was managing student demographic data across several learning institutions for grant and funding applications, but that manual process had become both time-consuming and inefficient. With plans to scale rapidly across more learning institutions, the DCS team was looking for a way to streamline and automate their data management so they could grow as planned.

In one integration to Edlink, DCS could connect to several SIS providers like Aeries, PowerSchool, and Skyward. Through Edlink, DCS can streamline syncing extended demographic data like student addresses in a centralized and secure way - removing the need for manual management of data. By choosing Edlink as their integration partner, DCS can focus on their core solution and growth, rather than building integrations one by one.
