Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed a contract with the city
of Greenville, N.C., for Tyler’s Munis® enterprise
resource planning (ERP) solution. The agreement includes software
licenses, training, related professional services and support.
Munis
replaces Greenville’s 22-year-old financial system that lacks integrated
functionality. The non-integrated approach has led to duplication of
data and increasingly disparate databases that reduced reporting
capabilities. To find a modern and integrated ERP software system, the
city formed a search committee composed of employees from a variety of
departments. The committee was charged with selecting a system whose
integration would eliminate the need for redundant systems and data
stores.
After evaluating several systems, the city chose multiple Munis
applications, including financial management and human capital
management. The city also will implement Tyler Content Manager, which is
completely integrated with Munis.
“Tyler’s Munis is a robust and user-friendly system that will serve the
city well. Munis offers the best value and is the best solution to meet
the needs of the city now and into the future,” said Bernita Demery,
director of financial services for the city of Greenville. “During our
search for a new ERP solution we found a number of peer government
organizations that have implemented Munis with favorable results. We
also value that Tyler is a financially sound business partner with a
track record of innovative product developments.”
Greenville also selected Tyler because its consulting services will help
establish best business practices, as well as improve accountability and
efficiency across all functions. Additionally, because Munis includes
real-time dashboards and key performance reporting, city leaders will be
able to leverage business analytics to help drive decision making.
“We welcome Greenville to the large community of Munis clients in North
Carolina. As a fully integrated solution, Munis will reduce the number
of systems Greenville owns and the related costs to maintain those
systems,” said Chris Hepburn, senior vice president of Tyler’s ERP &
School Division. “Tyler is proud to provide our Munis solution and
business process consulting services to help optimally serve the city’s
constituents.”
Greenville is North Carolina’s 10th most populated city and is a major
industrial and economic center for the north central coastal plains
region of eastern North Carolina.
