Tyler shifting solutions and operations to a
cloud-first business model
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced the
creation of a Corporate Operations team to support the company’s
multi-year cloud strategy, which will help lead Tyler’s public
sector clients to a future in the cloud.
The new structure will help achieve strategic goals, align
business priorities, and improve decision-making processes to
support the company’s cloud strategy. The strategy was formalized
with the company’s announcement in late 2019 of a strategic
collaboration agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS), its
preferred hosting services partner. Led by newly appointed Chief
Operating Officer Jeff Puckett, the Corporate Operations team will
include functions for cloud strategy and operations, corporate
development, information security, and information technology. In
addition to driving Tyler’s cloud strategy, the team will also
facilitate Tyler’s Connected Communities vision, improve its
technology infrastructure to scale with continued growth, and
oversee information security practices across Tyler’s
organization.
“Tyler has offered software as a service to the public sector
for more than 20 years, and we are excited to continue building on
our cloud strategy to deliver the best products and experience for
our clients,” said Jeff Puckett, chief operating officer, Tyler
Technologies. “We know that no two clients are exactly alike, and
they may have different timelines and paths toward becoming a
cloud-optimized organization. We look forward to helping them
create their roadmap toward a public cloud infrastructure and
helping them realize benefits such as a robust security
environment, better communication between offices and departments,
and streamlined software delivery.”
Jeff has been with Tyler for nearly 30 years and recently served
as chief strategy officer. Prior to that, he was president of
Tyler’s Courts & Justice Division and has held leadership
positions in every aspect of Tyler’s operations, including product
development, professional services, support, and sales.
Tyler also announced the creation of a new role primarily
focused on leading Tyler’s overall cloud transformation, strategy,
and operations. Russell Gainford has been named as vice president,
Cloud Strategy and Operations, and will be responsible for defining
best practices for cloud development, operations, and deployment to
achieve the full value of Tyler’s cloud initiative for both Tyler
and its clients. Russell joined Tyler in 2018 as vice president,
Development, for its Public Safety Division and has been
instrumental in driving public safety product innovation. Prior to
joining Tyler, Russell was vice president of Engineering at
Benefitfocus and vice president, Public Sector Development, at
Infor.
Tyler’s cloud strategy includes evolving Tyler’s solutions and
operations to align with a cloud-first business model. This year,
the company’s cloud focus will include:
- Identifying and developing priority, cloud-focused innovation
projects
- Driving cloud adoption and implementing new hosted clients
- Facilitating the migration of on-premises clients to the
cloud
- Creating AWS migration plans for Tyler-hosted clients
State, local, and federal government agencies increasingly seek
the benefits provided by managing their applications in a cloud
environment, benefits that include ensuring business continuity,
secure delivery, and up-to-date technology. This interest has
accelerated in response to the coronavirus pandemic as
organizations have had to manage essential services and serve their
constituents remotely.
