PR Newswire (US)
DALLAS, April 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tyler Technologies, Inc.
(NYSE:TYL) announced today that the Government of the United States
Virgin Islands (USVI) has signed a contract under which it will
streamline its financial management with Tyler's MUNIS Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP) software and related professional services.
The contract, valued at nearly $3.6 million, includes a wide range
of fully integrated financial, revenue, human resource and
productivity software applications. Tyler will also provide
implementation and consulting services, as well as ongoing
maintenance and support. The agreement, which makes the USVI the
first government in the Caribbean to select Tyler's MUNIS software,
demonstrates the company's commitment to continued expansion into
new territories. "Tyler Technologies is pleased to welcome the
United States Virgin Islands as its newest customer," stated
Richard Peterson, Jr., president of Tyler's MUNIS division. "Our
MUNIS software solution is an outstanding fit for the USVI. Our
proven, fully integrated ERP system will enable the government to
operate business in a highly organized and efficient manner," he
explained. "We look forward to a successful implementation in the
USVI and to continued growth in the Caribbean," he added. According
to Bernice A. Turnbull, Commissioner of Finance for the USVI, the
ease of using the MUNIS system and the willingness of Tyler to work
with the government were integral to its decision to purchase
Tyler's MUNIS software. "One of the key factors was that the system
is very user friendly. We were also quite impressed with the
interaction we had with senior management from Tyler, including a
visit from James Hurley, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
This showed how committed Tyler was to working with the Virgin
Islands," stated Ms. Turnbull. The MUNIS ERP software solution will
enable the USVI to conduct business more efficiently through the
integration of its software applications. The USVI government also
looks forward to benefiting from the software system's ability to
place real-time information such as accurate budgetary figures at
its fingertips. "The improved functionality of the Payroll, General
Ledger, Project & Grant Accounting, and Budgeting applications
is going to help us immediately," stated Ms. Turnbull. Ms. Turnbull
noted that the government appreciates the fact that using the MUNIS
Personnel application is less time intensive than its previous
system, enabling government workers to focus more time on other
initiatives. Being able to perform timely audits within MUNIS will
provide managers with the information they require to make better
decisions. The United States Virgin Islands consists of three
Caribbean islands, located east of Puerto Rico: St. Thomas, St.
John and St. Croix, with St. Thomas' Charlotte Amalie serving as
the capital. The U.S. purchased these islands from Denmark in 1917.
Today the USVI has a population of approximately 109,000. This
popular Caribbean destination hosts nearly two million visitors
yearly, making tourism its major industry. The USVI is known for
beautiful sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, rainforests, hiking
trails, snorkeling and shopping. Based in Dallas, Tyler
