Tyler’s Traversa software is currently used by
53 clients in the state
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) was selected for
cooperative purchasing by the Board of Cooperative Educational
Services (BOCES) of New York state, a distinction reserved for
select vendors. Tyler’s student transportation solution, Traversa®,
is now an approved selection as part of the statewide
administrative software bidding process.
Through this classification, New York school districts can
purchase Traversa directly through the BOCES cooperative purchasing
program without going out to bid, eliminating the time-consuming
RFP process used by many districts.
Tyler’s Traversa solution is a comprehensive program which
includes functionality for routing, fleet maintenance, and activity
trips, and offers a seamless user experience that can be used to
plan event trips, track work orders, and route buses. Traversa can
also be enhanced by the Tyler Drive™ on-board tablet and Tyler
Telematic GPS hardware. In 2017 to date, Traversa has been selected
for use by 17 new clients in New York. BOCES included Traversa in
its 2017 software re-bid process because of the software’s extreme
popularity, allowing Tyler to be an approved vendor going
forward.
“We are pleased to be recognized by the Board of Cooperative
Education Services in New York for our Traversa student
transportation software,” said Ted Thien, vice president and
general manager of Tyler’s transportation solutions. “We’ve already
been able to provide our comprehensive system to several New York
school districts, and we expect to bring fully-integrated student
transportation functionality to additional clients because of the
cooperative purchasing agreement.”
There are 37 BOCES in New York, partnering with nearly all the
state’s school districts to help meet students’ evolving
educational needs through cost-effective and relevant programs.
School districts receive funds from the state, called BOCES aid,
for the shared services purchased the previous year.
Tyler offers a broad portfolio of school solutions in addition
to transportation software, including data analytics, document
management, incident management, student information, and financial
management. Nationwide, Tyler has nearly 2,000 transportation
clients.
