Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed a seven-year
software-as-a-service (SaaS) agreement with Virginia's Frederick County
Public Schools for Tyler's Munis® enterprise resource planning (ERP)
solution and Tyler SIS™ (student information system). The agreement
includes hosting, project management, training and related professional
services. The school organization utilized the existing National Joint
Powers Alliance (NJPA) contract in procuring Munis and Tyler SIS.
Frederick County Public Schools sought a modern financial management,
human resources and payroll solution because its legacy system no longer
met the organization's needs. Frederick County Public Schools also
needed a new student information system to increase data access for
administration, staff, parents and students. The school organization
wanted one technology company to provide both solutions to ease
integration, help eliminate disparate systems and reduce the overall
technology footprint.
Frederick County Public Schools chose several core Munis applications,
including financial, human resources and payroll management. The project
will also implement Tyler SIS, which includes Tyler's new parent-student
portal, Student 360. Tyler has decades of experience with Virginia
school systems.
Because of the integrated nature of Munis and Tyler SIS, the school
system will be able to streamline processes and share data across
departments and systems. For example, when a new teacher is added to
Munis payroll, the teacher will also be added to Tyler SIS. Having the
solutions delivered via a SaaS model allows Tyler clients to free up IT
staff to focus on other projects; it also provides built-in redundancies
to prevent data loss and downtime.
Frederick County Public Schools serves approximately 13,000 students in
20 schools.
