Tyler Technologies Acquires Longtime Partner Akanda Innovation
Acquisition expected to enhance technology offering for Appraisal & Tax solution
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL - News) today announced that it has acquired substantially all of the assets of Akanda Innovation, Inc. of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This acquisition is the logical next step in continuing a partnership that has been in place since 1997, when Akanda began working with Tyler’s Appraisal & Tax Division developing complementary modules to Tyler’s iasWorld® appraisal and tax software.
The Akanda team will continue to provide expertise from a wide variety of technical disciplines, including geographic information system (GIS), browser-based and workflow technologies. The assimilation of Akanda’s staff of approximately 17 professionals into Tyler Technologies is expected to occur seamlessly and without disruption of ongoing implementation projects.
“We are excited about bringing Akanda into the Tyler organization,” said Andrew D. Teed, president of Tyler’s Appraisal & Tax Division. “This acquisition will streamline and improve implementation, support and development processes between our organizations. One of the hallmarks for Tyler Technologies is excellent customer service, and this agreement continues our commitment to providing the best service possible to our clients.”
