First province-wide instance of Traversa will
be hosted in Canadian database
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) has signed an agreement
with the BC Education Marketplace (BCEM) in British Columbia,
Canada, for Tyler’s Traversa® student transportation management
software. This will be Tyler’s first provincial Corporate Supply
Arrangement (CSA) for Traversa. The agreement includes software
licenses, professional services, training and support.
BCEM, a K-12 public school district initiative that helps
districts establish shared contracts for products and services,
issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) in June of 2016 in search of
an efficient and integrated transportation management solution.
BCEM required functionality for routing, fleet maintenance, and
other office operations, and sought a solution that was easy and
cost effective for districts to implement and operate. Tyler’s
focus on the public sector, Traversa’s scalability, and Traversa’s
prior implementations in similar-sized districts were all factors
in the successful bid result.
“BCEM’s first priority is to meet the needs of BC school
districts through collaborative procurement initiatives like the
one for bus route optimization software just signed with Tyler
Technologies,” said BCEM Director Maria Melan. “The system will be
piloted in eight BC school districts in early 2017. We look forward
to a successful relationship with the company as our districts
choose to implement this solution.”
As a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution, Traversa scales to
meet the various needs of each individual district. Tyler will host
Traversa in Canada and will place employees locally to best support
and meet the needs of BCEM and other Canadian clients. Deploying
Traversa in this manner will allow BCEM to meet British Columbia’s
strict privacy regulations.
Participating BC school districts will have access to 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. Current British Columbia school districts
already using Tyler’s Versatrans® will have the option to upgrade
to Traversa when they are ready to do so.
“The scalability and flexibility that makes Traversa so unique
appealed to BCEM and met their goal of having a single solution
that would work effectively and meet the needs of individual
districts,” said Ted Thien, vice president and general manager for
Tyler’s transportation group. “We’re excited to apply our deep
public sector experience to this new contractual relationship with
the BC Education Marketplace, and we look forward to helping
participating districts throughout British Columbia better manage
their transportation needs.”
Tyler currently provides K-12 transportation solutions to school
districts in five Canadian jurisdictions, including Yukon Territory
and the provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Alberta and
British Columbia.
