Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed an agreement with
Connecticut’s town of West Hartford and West Hartford Public Schools to
implement Microsoft
Dynamics® AX, an enterprise resource planning (ERP)
solution with public sector functionality that Tyler Technologies
jointly developed with Microsoft®. The contract includes
related professional services, licensing, training and support.
West Hartford selected Tyler Technologies and Microsoft Dynamics after a
competitive review process with criteria including experience, technical
and functional alignment, implementation approach, product
demonstrations and reference checks.
“Being on the leading edge of technology is a core organizational value
for the town. We selected Microsoft Dynamics AX as a business solution
not only for its support of operational and administrative processes
within our organization, but as a platform for future development that
will consistently keep us current with state-of-the-art technology,”
said Peter Privitera, director of financial services at the town of West
Hartford. “Microsoft Dynamics AX will help West Hartford manage
finances, procurement, human resources and budget control with increased
productivity, more effective workforce management, and improved resource
alignment.”
For decades, Tyler has successfully developed, deployed and supported
software solutions exclusively for the public sector. As part of the
agreement between Tyler and Microsoft, Tyler is an authorized reseller
of Microsoft Dynamics AX and delivers software support and other
standard services. West Hartford Public Schools will be the first
domestic K-12 installation on the Microsoft Dynamics AX platform.
“West Hartford has made a sound investment in selecting Tyler
Technologies because of our evergreen philosophy, which provides
perpetual software upgrades without additional relicensing fees,” said
Jeff Green, senior vice president at Tyler Technologies. “With the
deployment of Microsoft Dynamics AX, West Hartford will consolidate
disparate applications to a fully integrated solution, allowing for
greater efficiency and productivity.”
The town of West Hartford has a population of 63,300 and is located in
central Connecticut, adjacent to the city of Hartford, the state’s
capital. The town and schools of West Hartford employ approximately
1,930 full-time employees.
