County chooses integrated Munis system to
enhance functionality and reporting capabilities
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed a seven-year
software as a service (SaaS) agreement with Monroe County,
Wisconsin, for Tyler’s Munis® enterprise resources planning (ERP)
solution to replace the county’s legacy financial software system.
The agreement includes related professional services, training and
support.
Monroe County will implement multiple Munis applications,
including financial and human capital management applications,
which will enhance the county’s reporting capabilities and access
to information for employees, elected officials and citizens.
The county’s competitive review focused on finding a cloud-based
ERP solution from a vendor who doesn’t rely on third-party hosting
services — Tyler hosts and manages its SaaS-based solutions from
its data centers in Texas and Maine. Another key Monroe County
requirement was for a Web- and Windows-based ERP solution that
includes paperless document management, like Munis does.
By having Munis delivered via the SaaS model, Monroe County can
reduce upfront capital costs, IT personnel costs, license fees and
hardware costs. Additionally, because Munis is available anytime
and anywhere, the county will improve accessibility and provide
network access for departments that currently don’t have
access.
“Munis met Monroe County’s very specific ERP solution needs, and
we are pleased they selected Tyler to help enhance functionality,
service and transparency,” said Chris Hepburn, senior vice
president of Tyler’s ERP & School Division. “The SaaS model
provides our clients with Munis’ modern technology without
requiring an investment of upfront capital or a large IT team to
manage servers and other related infrastructure. Tyler looks
forward to working with Monroe County for many years to come.”
Monroe County is located in southwest Wisconsin and has about
45,000 residents. The city of La Crosse also uses Munis, and
Portage County, Wisconsin, recently chose to implement Munis as
well.
