Tyler Technologies Signs $1.7 Million Contract to Provide Financial Software to the City of Miami Beach, Florida DALLAS, June 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:TYL) announced today that it has signed a contract with the City of Miami Beach, Florida, to provide a full suite of integrated financial software. The total value of the contract, including software, professional services and support, is estimated at more than $1.7 million. Tyler will implement in Miami Beach its InForum Gold software to manage the City's financial, payroll and human resource, and citizen services applications. The City will also utilize InForum Gold Internet Extensions to enhance its ability to interact with job applicants. In December of 2003, the Finance and Information Technology departments at the City of Miami Beach met to evaluate the City's existing finance system. They determined that the system, in use since the 1980s, provided major financial management functions but was difficult to use and extremely labor intensive. Moreover, the system was unable to produce the comprehensive integrated information needed to manage the City's financial and administrative records efficiently. After evaluating several vendors, the City selected Tyler's Eden Systems division as the vendor best able to meet its long-term needs. "Eden Systems stood apart from other vendors because of its state-of-the-art technology and completely integrated enterprise solution," said Trish Walker, Chief Financial Officer of the City of Miami Beach. "It was an unexpected pleasure to negotiate a contract with a company that was so responsive and willing to find realistic solutions to our issues." The City placed a great deal of importance on acquiring financial software that would improve its business relationships with the public, as well as simplify internal processes. "We want to make doing business with the City easier and increase online accessibility to City services for our community," commented Ms. Walker. "I am confident that the implementation of the Eden Systems software will help us streamline our processes and improve the way we do business in the City. It will also dramatically change the quality and timeliness of information available to management. We look forward to working together with Tyler Technologies to help Miami Beach stay on the cutting edge of technology." The City of Miami Beach, with a population approaching 100,000, is a major tourist destination located just across Biscayne Bay from Miami. "We are happy to further extend our presence in the growing Florida market," commented Gene Jackson, President of Tyler's Eden Systems division. "We look forward to having the City of Miami Beach join our growing community of clients in Florida, which includes the cities of Fort Myers and Pensacola."
