County chooses Munis to enhance efficiency and
citizen service
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed a
software-as-a-service (SaaS) agreement with San Juan County, New
Mexico, for Tyler’s Munis® enterprise resource planning (ERP)
solution. The agreement includes hosting services, support and
related professional services.
San Juan County needed to replace its legacy financial system
because it was nearing end of life and was no longer supported by
the vendor says Kim Carpenter, San Juan County CEO. “We sought
leading-edge technology that would eliminate data silos and
duplicated data entry while increasing reporting capabilities,
creating workflow efficiencies, and providing staff and vendors
self-service access. The county also wanted a solution that could
enhance how residents, employees and businesses interact with the
county now, while being flexible enough to grow with the county far
into the future.”
After a competitive review, San Juan County chose to partner
with Tyler Technologies, which has implemented Munis in several New
Mexico jurisdictions. The county selected core Munis applications,
including financial, human resources and payroll management. The
county also chose Tyler Content Manager, which transforms
paper-based information into electronic documents, further
streamlining processes.
“We strive to be as transparent as possible with our residents,”
says Commission Chairman Scott Eckstein. “We value how Munis
complements these efforts by enabling us to improve data access and
make the best use of taxpayer dollars. In addition to Tyler’s deep
public sector experience, we like how Munis is ahead of the curve
in terms of providing technology that will help us better interact
with residents over the next several years. Tyler’s ability to
deliver Munis in a SaaS environment was another big differentiator
for us because we feel it’s the right time for us to adopt
cloud-based technology as a way of reducing costs while enhancing
access to the ERP system. A SaaS agreement will also allow us to
redeploy resources to better serve our citizens.”
Munis’ integrated nature will enable the northwestern New Mexico
county to consolidate disparate systems and help improve employee
communication across departments.
“Governments need solutions that are developed specifically for
their unique processes that support their ability to serve their
constituents, which is why municipalities like San Juan County
gravitate toward Tyler Technologies and our singular focus on the
public sector,” said Chris Hepburn, president of Tyler’s ERP &
School Division. “Tyler is pleased to add San Juan County to its
growing list of Munis clients in New Mexico, and we are committed
to making the county’s transition to Munis very successful.”
San Juan County, located in northwest New Mexico, has more than
700 employees and approximately 130,000 residents. The county also
uses Tyler’s EagleTM recording and property tax assessment
solution.
