Tyler's Excellence Awards recognize organizations that demonstrate
excellence in deploying Tyler software in novel and impactful ways that
extend best practices. Award submissions, accepted from October 18,
2016, through February 1, 2017, were evaluated by a panel of Tyler
leadership and judged on business value, maturity, innovation and
relevance to other public sector organizations. Additional criteria met
by award winners included:
-
Creating a unique process using a Tyler application or service that
can educate other organizations
-
Realizing significant savings after implementing a Tyler solution
-
Increasing staff productivity by implementing a Tyler application or
service
-
Empowering employees, citizens or vendors
The following jurisdictions are 2017 Excellence Award winners recognized
for Tyler's Public Safety solution:
Oxnard Police Department, California: With Tyler's New World
Decision Support solution, the Oxnard Police Department can create heat
maps that dictate time, date, place and situation around traffic
accidents and citations, which helps reallocate officers, deploy traffic
personnel, and save time by eliminating manual processes. The agency
also uses the New World Law Enforcement Records Management solution to
help loss prevention officers save time by entering shoplifting reports
into one global jacket data collection, saving hours of time in the
process.
Kankakee County Sheriff's Office, Illinois: By entering
information into New World Law Enforcement Records Management and
Corrections solutions, public safety personnel with the Kankakee County
Sheriff's Office can identify suspects and bodies almost instantly. This
technology was especially useful in a situation when an inmate with the
Jerome Combs Detention Center escaped and was later captured by police
near Chicago. The fugitive was identified by a tattoo on his neck, which
was found in his global jacket data collection, stored in the New World
software.
METCOM 911, Oregon: Located in the Portland, Oregon area, METCOM
911 uses the ESRI-powered GIS technology in New World Enterprise CAD to
dispatch to its 29 agencies. Prior to using New World, the communication
center was using paper maps. With digital CAD maps, dispatchers and
first responders are better able to implement mutual and auto-aid
strategies by way of closest station and apparatus. This improves
operations for fire and EMS users as it helps them identify stations and
apparatuses responsible for specific geographical regions on a map. This
ability helps dispatchers and first responders save time.
Tyler Excellence Award winners were honored May 7 in San Antonio, Texas,
where they were presented with the award and given the opportunity to
share their best practices and lessons learned with their public sector
peers.
