City of Hillsboro, Oregon, Purchases MUNIS Enterprise Resource Planning Software from Tyler Technologies

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL - News) announced today that it has reached an agreement with the City of Hillsboro, Oregon, to provide Tyler's MUNIS financial management software. The approximately $1 million contract includes a full suite of MUNIS financial applications, in addition to human resources, revenues and integrated solutions. Based on the deal, Tyler will provide ongoing maintenance and support, as well as other professional services.

The contract marks the first city in the state of Oregon to select Tyler's MUNIS Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution. According to Richard Peterson, Jr., president of Tyler's MUNIS Financial Management Solutions, the recent agreement is a sign of the strong reputation both Tyler and its MUNIS system have established on the West Coast.

"We're honored to have the City of Hillsboro join the Tyler community. This agreement reflects Tyler's commitment to growing our MUNIS client base in the western United States and our dedication to being the leader in public sector software solutions. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with the City," Peterson said.

Brian Kennedy, Hillsboro's ERP Project Manager, said several factors in addition to positive recommendations from Tyler's clients influenced Hillsboro's decision to purchase MUNIS. "Tyler's MUNIS financial management solution provides the functionality to meet the City of Hillsboro's complex business needs. The system's emphasis on ease of use for end users and Tyler's exclusive focus on the public sector were also appealing," he stated.

The City has opted to purchase several integrated solutions, including MUNIS Self Service. Through Citizen Self Service, residents will be able to pay bills online, make inquiries and more. Employee Self Service will enable City employees to update personal information and access data online rather than contacting human resources staff. The software also facilitates the job application process.

This tourist-friendly city has a population of 85,000 and serves as the government seat for Washington County.
