Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed an agreement with the
Guam Department of Education (GDOE) to provide its Munis®enterprise
resource planning (ERP) solution. The contract, valued at
approximately $3.4 million, includes software licenses, related
professional services, maintenance and support.
The GDOE, a single, unified school district serving more than 30,000
students in its 40 schools, is using funds from the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFFS) to
pay for Munis
applications, including financial management, project and grant
management, vendor and employee self service, human capital management
and content management. The GDOE has also invested in Tyler's change
management services to engineer best business practices and manage the
implementation of new processes and applications across the district.
"After a competitive request-for-proposal process, we selected Tyler's
Munis solution because it provides up-to-date information and will allow
us to make better-informed decisions across all departments," said
Taling Taitano, interim superintendent at the Guam Department of
Education. "In addition, GDOE vendors and employees will benefit from
Munis by using online self service portals to obtain information that
directly relates to them. We also expect that Munis will deliver
improved workflow processes throughout the department and make the
GDOE's reporting to funding sources easier and more accurate."
Tyler Technologies will have dedicated staff in Guam during the Munis
implementation and deployment. Guam, located in the western Pacific
Ocean, is an unincorporated territory of the United States.
"The Guam Department of Education's selection of Munis requires zero
customization to aid in tracking and managing federal and grant funding,
while benefiting from Tyler's expertise in industry best practices and
meeting generally accepted accounting principles," said John S. Marr
Jr., Tyler's president and chief executive officer. "Tyler is committed
to the GDOE and our dedicated, on-island team is already working hard to
help ensure that this new relationship is highly successful."
