Tyler Technologies Continues Coast-to-Coast Expansion with ERP Software Contracts in New York, Missouri and California

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL - News) announced today that it has signed contracts for the implementation of its MUNIS financial management solution with clients in three states: Cayuga County, New York; St. Charles County, Missouri; and the City of El Centro, California. The software agreements, which include professional services, ongoing support and maintenance, are together valued at approximately $2.2 million.

St. Charles County, Cayuga County and El Centro have all chosen a comprehensive suite of financial and human resource applications. Additionally, each organization purchased MUNIS Business Objects and Tyler GASB 34 Report Writer to optimize their reporting capabilities.

Cayuga County will implement several applications from the revenue suite, including MUNIS New York Tax, which will enable it to automate real estate billing, collections and delinquency processing. The County will also implement the MUNIS New York Civil Service application to simplify the entry and tracking of employees.

According to Wayne Allen, Cayuga County manager, Tyler’s ability to provide a complete solution to meet the County’s current and future requirements influenced its decision. “Tyler’s MUNIS system addresses the County’s immediate need to put into place a state-of-the art financial management solution. This will enable the County to produce timely financial reporting and improve accountability. Our present system has been plagued with errors and is labor intensive,” he explained.

Allen noted that Cayuga County was impressed by the internal controls built into the MUNIS product. “These features will enable us to obtain the proper authorizations before a transaction is finalized. Overall, we believe MUNIS will reduce workloads significantly, improve efficiencies and boost our ability to produce accurate and timely reports. We’re also pleased with Tyler’s ability to support its products, which is important due to the statutory deadlines we face as a government agency and something that is especially evident during the property tax billing process. We believe that Tyler can deliver on all facets of the County’s business needs,” he said.

Located in the Finger Lakes region of New York, Cayuga County has a population of approximately 82,000. The majority of residents reside in the central region of the county, which includes Auburn—the county seat (population 28,500). The county covers a land area of 700 square miles.

St. Charles County opted for several revenue applications, such as MUNIS Permits & Code Enforcement, MUNIS Business Licenses and MUNIS General Billing. It will also employ MUNIS Self Service for citizens, employees and businesses to enhance services.

St. Charles County Director of Information Systems, Don Brannam, commented on the County’s selection of Tyler’s MUNIS system. “St. Charles County is transitioning from a mainframe system to an enterprise class database. Tyler Technologies met the requirements of our RFP and will meet our needs well into the future. The MUNIS financial management solution will be the heart of our Enterprise Database,” he said.

The county is home to 338,000 citizens and is part of the St. Louis metro area. For several decades it has ranked as one of the fastest growing counties in the United States. St. Charles County is 592 square miles. The city of St. Charles serves as the county seat.

El Centro, which has a population of 40,500 and is the seat of Imperial County, invested in several revenue applications, including MUNIS Business Licenses, MUNIS General Billing and MUNIS Utility Billing. It will complement these modules with MUNIS Self Service for business and utility billing.

“Tyler has earned a reputation from coast to coast for providing information management solutions designed specifically for the public sector. These three agreements for Tyler’s MUNIS financial management solution clearly reflect our growing presence in the market. Tyler is committed to partnering with our clients to enable them to better serve their constituents.
