Tyler
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced it has acquired the
assets of Digital Health Department (DHD), a company that provides
environmental health software, offering a software-as-a-service (SaaS)
solution for public health compliance and inspections processes.
With this acquisition, Tyler will broaden its EnerGov™ enterprise
licensing and regulatory solution by adding environmental
health-market-focused inspections and a compliance offering. The
offering aids local and state governments with managing the critical
processes of protecting the community's public health, related to the
programs of health and environmental compliance and inspections of food
and restaurant, pool and recreational health, wastewater and septic,
drinking water, solid wastes, hazardous materials, vector control,
daycare, tattoo and body art, tourist accommodations, campgrounds, and
other services.
As state and local government programs that address protecting the
public's health become an increasing citizen concern, Tyler's clients,
particularly those currently leveraging EnerGov, Munis,® and
Incode®, can benefit from an additional and expanded Tyler
solution to ensure the safety of its community's public health. For
DHD's existing clients, Tyler brings the resources, long-term stability,
and best practices in the public sector space to help further strengthen
their current environmental health solution offerings. DHD's long
history in the environmental health and safety vertical supports clients
including the states of Georgia and Hawaii, and the city of San Antonio,
Texas.
"This opportunity with Tyler is a natural fit for our company and will
help us accelerate the offerings we currently provide in the
environmental health market," said Rahul Saxena, chief executive
officer, Digital Health Department. "Health inspections are becoming
increasingly important to government agencies, and we're looking forward
to being able to provide our existing and prospective clients the option
to further enhance their enterprise permitting and licensing needs
through Tyler's solutions."
"We are excited to enter the environmental health market by adding
Digital Health Department's offerings to Tyler's EnerGov solution
suite," said Rusty Smith, general manager of Tyler's EnerGov solution.
"In an increasingly safety-conscious world with increasing demand for
public transparency, Tyler now will provide a leading solution for
agencies to manage the complex and critical processes related to health
inspections, and, in turn, help their constituents feel at ease knowing
their safety is a top priority."
All of DHD's employees will remain with Tyler to continue to serve
clients and integrate processes, products, and services into Tyler's
offerings for enterprise community health solutions.
