Rebuilding a Burning Platform as a Springboard for SaaS Success

Success Story / Technology

After investing in best-in-class security products, the global organization required specialized expertise to assess its security posture, sunset legacy systems, and future-proof its identity program.

Challenge

ASTM International is a globally recognized standards development organization with 13,000 active standards spanning industries from iron to cannabis and beyond. As part of its pivot from traditional publishing to a modern SaaS model, the nonprofit needed to replace its burning platform with an Okta-powered MVP in just 18 months. Migrating from a single-vendor system built over 25 years with no source code or documentation, ASTM faced the added pressure of a single-rollout mandate and the need to launch a safe, scalable, and agile framework to support a new business model.

Solution

Throughout the transformation, BeyondID served as ASTM’s most trusted source of technical and subject matter expertise. What began as an external Okta implementation evolved into a full-scale digital transformation. Together, we replaced ASTM’s risky legacy platform with a secure, scalable Okta platform, moving ASTM confidently into the future.
