Data-as-a-Service solution will optimize
internal data sharing and reuse for clients
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced the launch
and general availability of the Socrata Connected Government Cloud,
a revolutionary approach to internal data sharing that empowers
government workers to access a single-source of trusted data and
securely share analysis, visualizations and performance
measurements across multiple departments and programs, in order to
inform decision-making and improve program outcomes with actionable
insights. Socrata was recently acquired by Tyler Technologies.
Designed to put data at the heart of every government program,
the Socrata Connected Government Cloud solution helps move
government organizations into a secure, cloud-based, self-service
environment that breaks down data silos, promotes collaboration and
reuse of data, and gives the government employee a modern toolset
to transform data into information and insights they can use to
improve financial, operational and strategic outcomes. In this
environment, the flow and quality of open data is greatly enhanced
as it becomes a natural byproduct of internal data sharing rather
than a standalone program.
The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) served as a design
partner alongside the Socrata team, offering input during the
development phase and throughout the pilot program. Deputy Director
Shane Marshall credits the Socrata Connected Government Cloud
solution with transforming how the department tracks, measures and
funds work on its strategic initiatives.
“When we moved our 300-page annual report to the legislature
from a stack of paper to a live, interactive, accurate, near
real-time source of truth on our performance, we developed a
different relationship with legislators. Their questions and our
answers are now much more specific and accurate,” says
Marshall.
An additional benefit of sharing data across programs within
UDOT, says Marshall, is that staffers’ work is showcased and
celebrated. “When great results sit on a desktop computer in a PDF,
fewer people get to say, ‘Great job on that.’ Now employees are
motivated to share their achievements with a wider audience.”
Tyler expects four groups of government employees to benefit
most from greater data access, insight, and collaboration
capabilities: government executives, program managers, analysts,
and any knowledge worker in an agency. Following the successful
pilot program with UDOT and early adoption by Hawaii Department of
Transportation (HiDOT), the State of Pennsylvania, and the City of
Henderson, Nevada, the Socrata Connected Government Cloud solution
is now available to all federal, state, and local government
agencies, including Tyler’s broad base of current clients.
Kevin Merritt, founder of Socrata and now president of Tyler’s
newly formed Data & Insights Division, said, “This is a
fundamental transformation of how knowledge work gets done in
government. Our ten years of open data leadership, working with the
most innovative and forward-thinking government innovators around
the world, helped us understand what’s at stake for our customers
in turning siloed data into a productive asset. We worked in
lockstep with our clients on every aspect of it, from balancing
self-service discovery with data governance, to the visualization
experience to API design. The entire data-as-a-service platform and
product suite was built from the ground up around the needs of the
modern government worker.”
The Socrata Connected Government Cloud solution brings five
essential functions together for optimal data use by
governments:
1. Connecting data silos into a single access point for
authoritative and up-to-date data
2. Providing secure, auditable self-service access to that
trusted data for authorized employees
3. Making data useful and actionable by transforming it into
information that employees can use to manage their programs,
including connecting program performance to outcomes, sharing
operational insights with colleagues, and enabling more intelligent
resource allocation
4. Facilitating open data as a byproduct by sharing aspects of
this internal information with external constituents
5. Enabling infinite reuse of data to drive down costs and
complexity for IT leaders with a data-as-a-service platform that
allows for data reuse to power integrations, open analytics, and
app development without ever replicating that data
Jeff Green, Tyler’s chief technology officer, added, “The
Socrata Connected Government Cloud is the fundamental building
block and enabler of our Connected Communities vision. The
data-as-a-service platform allows us to streamline the internal
flow of data and insights across systems, departments and even
jurisdictions in a secure and contextually-relevant way for our
users and their constituents. That is a very exciting development
for Tyler’s 15,000 clients.”
