Tyler
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) signed an agreement with Pittsburgh
Public Schools in Pennsylvania for Tyler's Munis® enterprise
resource planning (ERP) solution. Pennsylvania's second-largest school
district will use Munis to manage financials, procurement, human
resources (HR) and payroll information.
Pittsburgh Public Schools serves roughly 30,000 students and employs
approximately 5,000 people across 54 individual school locations in the
Pittsburgh metro area. The district's existing ERP solution, in place
for 15 years, lacks updated features and the appropriate level of vendor
support to help manage its financial and HR information.
In addition, the current solution does not integrate well with
third-party systems, which leads to duplication of data and unnecessary
manual processes. After an extensive review of several vendors,
Pittsburgh Public Schools ultimately selected Tyler to provide Munis as
a fully integrated ERP system that will serve all school locations.
"We were eager to find a stable partner who will provide a long-term
solution to meet the evolving needs of our schools," said Scott
Gutowski, chief of information and technology, Pittsburgh Public
Schools. "We're confident in Tyler's ability to provide us with a fully
integrated ERP solution, which will make our departments more efficient
and bring a greater level of data transparency to better serve the
Pittsburgh community."
Munis will manage Pittsburgh Public Schools' financials and personnel
data while automating workflows between departments. The solution will
allow for greater transparency of the information for staff, and it will
seamlessly integrate with existing third-party systems. Munis will also
help to reduce manual processes and eliminate the duplication of data
and information.
"We look forward to providing our Munis solution to Pittsburgh Public
Schools, and know they will gain great efficiencies with our software
within their many individual school locations," said Chris Hepburn,
president of Tyler's ERP & School Division. "We understand the need to
manage and protect important financial and personnel information for a
school client of this size, and we're confident that Munis will support
their needs."
Pittsburgh is located in western Pennsylvania, and its metropolitan area
has a population of more than 2 million. Munis is used by more than
1,600 clients across the United States, including nearly 70 clients in
Pennsylvania. Tyler also provides its iasWorld® appraisal and
tax administration solution to Allegheny County, which includes the city
of Pittsburgh.
