Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today reported that Los Angeles
County, California, has expanded its agreement for Tyler's EnerGov™
planning, regulatory and maintenance solution. Los Angeles County
selected EnerGov in 2014 for the county's Department of Regional
Planning and has signed an amendment to include the Department of Public
Works.
When selecting Tyler's EnerGov permitting and land management platform,
the Los Angeles County evaluation committee conducted a competitive
evaluation process based on several considerations, including staff
qualifications, project management methodologies, references, a series
of live software demonstrations, and the platform's
commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) functionality.
The county contracted with an outside consulting firm for input before
expanding its partnership with Tyler. The firm concluded that a single
instance of EnerGov for both departments of Public Works and Regional
Planning would enable seamless workflow and data sharing across
departments.
"The expansion of Tyler's EnerGov solution within Los Angeles County to
include Public Works supports the county's goals of operational
effectiveness, community responsiveness and integrated service delivery
by providing a permitting process that will be effective, provide better
connected data, and improve collaboration across multiple departments
involved in land development and building construction," said Los
Angeles County Public Works Deputy Director of Development Services
Dennis Hunter. "We expect improved customer value and transparency with
EnerGov through an enhanced user experience, real-time access to
information and an opportunity to integrate GIS into our land use
regulation and permitting processes."
Approximately 90 percent of land development processes occur between the
county's departments of Public Works and Regional Planning. EnerGov will
streamline processes between the departments by automating operations
such as land-use planning, regulatory permitting, enforcement case
management, inspections and citizen requests. Additionally, EnerGov's
mobile applications will provide Los Angeles County staff with enhanced,
real-time access to data and GIS spatial analysis while in the field.
"EnerGov's technical merits attract public sector agencies of all sizes,
and clients like Los Angeles County recognize that they are getting a
true long-term partner, not just a software vendor," said Brett Cate,
president of Tyler's Local Government Division. "The Department of
Public Works' mission is to provide infrastructure and services that
enrich residents' daily lives. Tyler similarly values positively
impacting our clients' daily lives by providing software and services
that help them succeed. We look forward to continuing our partnership
with Los Angeles County to meet its goals for an integrated permitting
and land management platform."
The Department of Public Works is expected to begin implementing EnerGov
in November 2015.
Los Angeles County is the most populous county in the U.S. with roughly
10 million residents and more than 88 incorporated cities. The Superior
Court of California, County of Los Angeles, in 2014 selected Tyler's
Odyssey® court case management software solution to modernize
court processes and optimize resources.
