Tyler
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) signed an agreement with the city of
Berkeley, California, for Tyler's Munis® enterprise resource
planning (ERP) and ExecuTime™ time and record keeping
solutions. The solutions will help the city meet its goal of improving
business processes while it installs core public sector ERP
functionality.
The city of Berkeley developed an organization-wide assessment of their
needs and sought an ERP solution that would be up to date with current
technology trends and fulfill many reporting options the city needed for
departments to run efficiently. They sought a system with greatly
increased functionality and greater integration between existing
systems. The city turned to Tyler, through a competitive bidding
process, because of its existing relationship with the company and
Tyler's knowledge of modern ERP systems.
"Tyler understood our unique needs and has worked closely with us to set
us up for success within our various departments," said Tasha Tervalon,
assistant to the city manager, city of Berkeley. "We are excited to see
what advanced data analysis and processing capabilities the solutions
bring to our city so we can best serve our community."
Through the implementation, the city plans to manage grants, projects,
and budgets in a way they couldn't before, as well as make improvements
to systems and data integration. The city also expects that with the
implementation of Munis and ExecuTime, it will be able to eliminate
duplicate data entry, provide citizen access to data and user-friendly
reporting tools, reduce paper use, and broaden employee and vendor
self-service capabilities.
"We look forward to improving business processes and efficiencies for
the city of Berkeley through Tyler's Munis and ExecuTime solutions,"
said Chris Hepburn, president of Tyler's ERP & Schools Division. "With
our comprehensive system, the city will be set up for success to reach
their objective of installing and maintaining a modern public sector ERP
system."
The city of Berkeley is in Alameda County, California, on the east side
of the San Francisco Bay, and has a population of nearly 120,000. Tyler
also provides its Versatrans® student transportation solution
to the Berkeley Unified School District.
