SUMMARY
The City's current financial system has been in place since 1998. City Staff has anticipated the need to procure a replacement of the financial accounting system with an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system for some time. The Finance Department recently completed a competitive bid process for a new system. Tyler Technologies, Inc. was the low bidder and ranked as the best ERP solution of the qualified bidders to upgrade the system. Tyler proposed the Munis ERP system with utilization of cloud technology over a seven year contract period.
Tyler will replace more than the City's Integrated Financial Accounting System (IFAS). Due to the enhanced capabilities of the Tyler Munis system, the City will be able to replace other enterprise software systems which currently do not interface with IFAS. This will ultimately result in fewer enterprise software systems to be maintained (both hardware and software), fewer systems to train staff on, and a significant reduction in the duplication of work that occurs utilizing two systems which not no interface nor have proper work flow connecting the systems.
