Tyler
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) signed an agreement with the Vermont
Judiciary for Tyler's Odyssey® unified case management system
for all case types and a statewide e-filing software solution. This
agreement expands Odyssey's presence in New England as the leading
provider of court software and brings greater access to justice for all
of Vermont's constituents.
eFileVT™ will provide the state of Vermont with the ability to
electronically review and accept court case filings from litigants
across the state. Vermont will become the 15th client to
deploy Odyssey File & Serve (OFS) statewide across all courts, and the 25th
state where OFS is being used.
Vermont's selection of Tyler came after a rigorous multi-year process
spent reviewing various vendors' solutions and their technical
capabilities, and conducting site visits to reference customers.
"We needed a proven solution to enable our transformation to a 21st
century operational model. Tyler's experience in statewide court
implementations will support our move away from a paper-driven world
with best practice-based functional and technical solutions," said Jeff
Loewer, chief information officer of the Vermont Judiciary.
"Implementing modern case data intake, processing, electronic records
systems, and e-filing will reduce tedious clerical work, significantly
improve the efficiency of workflows, and result in better service to the
citizens of Vermont."
Tyler's Odyssey solution will replace Vermont's custom legacy system and
will accommodate e-filing, document management, workflows, dashboards,
jury management, and other modern court case management system
functions. Vermont chose multiple Odyssey modules, including Case
Management, File & Serve, Jury, and Guide & File.
"Tyler is proud of our successes in other New England states with
similar goals as Vermont, and we are eager to help the Vermont Judiciary
further their vision of providing equal access to justice, protecting
individual rights, resolving legal disputes fairly and timely, and
providing everyone the opportunity to have their day in court," said
Bruce Graham, president of Tyler's Courts & Justice Division. "Not only
will we help create a paperless system for Vermont, but we will also
increase access to justice and help make the Vermont Judiciary even more
efficient."
Vermont will benefit from Tyler's evergreen perpetual licensing approach
that provides regular and significant, yet manageable, software
enhancements without an additional relicensing fee, ensuring all systems
are using the latest technology.
Tyler has successfully implemented Odyssey more than 100 times across
the country. In all, Odyssey serves more than 900 counties with a
combined population of more than 120 million, comprising 40 percent of
the U.S. population.
