Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed a seven-year software-as-a-service
(SaaS) contract with the city of Mobile, Alabama, for an integrated
suite of Tyler software solutions to replace the city’s 30-year-old
system. The agreement, valued at approximately $11 million, includes
hosting services, related professional services and support.
“Information technology is a critical investment and a strategic asset
for the citizens we are here to serve,” said Mobile Mayor Sandy
Stimpson. “Our current system no longer met the needs of a 21st century
city. Tyler’s software is groundbreaking, innovative and puts us on the
leading edge of technology.”
After a competitive review and demonstration process, Mobile selected
Tyler’s Munis®
enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, Incode®
municipal court solution, EnerGovTM
planning, permitting and licensing solution, and Tyler
Public SafetyTM for a complete suite of integrated
solutions. The city will benefit from Tyler’s evergreen perpetual
licensing approach that provides regular and significant, yet
manageable, software enhancements without an additional relicensing or
service fee, ensuring all systems are using the latest technology.
By selecting cloud-based solutions, Mobile can rely on Tyler to maintain
the city’s data and security, as well as perform disaster recovery
services should the city experience a catastrophic event. More than
3,200 public sector organizations use Tyler’s cloud-based systems.
“The city of Mobile is considering the long term and investing wisely by
selecting Tyler as the sole vendor for an integrated citywide system.
Tyler’s singular mission is to provide software and services to cities
like Mobile,” said John S. Marr Jr., president and chief executive
officer of Tyler. “Our cloud-based solutions will provide significant
long-term value for Mobile because Tyler manages the day-to-day
maintenance of the system, allowing Mobile’s staff to focus on other
critical functions. We’re pleased to partner with Mobile to help the
city provide enhanced services to its constituents.”
The city of Mobile is the state’s oldest settlement and the
second-largest city. Mobile is also the largest municipality on the Gulf
Cost between New Orleans and St. Petersburg, Florida. The city has more
than 2,650 employees and a population of 246,000.
