A 5X Case Study
Vertex Education, a charter school operator, faced a fragmented data landscape with manual reporting processes across its marketing, enrollment, and operations teams. Their challenge involved siloed data in tools like Google Sheets and PowerSchool, which led to duplicated dashboards and a lack of real-time visibility, preventing confident and timely decision-making.
5X implemented an end-to-end data platform for Vertex, which included dbt-based modeling, custom connectors, and Tableau dashboards with row-level security. This solution automated over 10 reports, cutting reporting effort by 80%, and accelerated data ingestion by 75%. Furthermore, 5X enabled the deployment of Vertex's first predictive analytics model to forecast student performance, providing real-time insights and unifying data access across the entire organization.
