DALLAS, April 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tyler Technologies, Inc.
(NYSE: TYL) announced today that Lehigh County, Pennsylvania has signed a
contract to implement Tyler's Odyssey Case Manager system. The total value of
the contract, including software and professional services, exceeds
$2.7 million. With the signing of this contract, Tyler continues to build on
the reputation of Odyssey, the first completely new, Web-based court case
management system available to the state and local government marketplace.
Located in eastern Pennsylvania, Lehigh County includes the cities of
Allentown and Bethlehem. With a population of more than 300,000, Lehigh
County is among the 200 largest counties in the nation. In its search for
software to replace its aging in-house courts systems, the County required a
courts system that would grow with it and that could facilitate the
consolidation of multiple functions and departments. Because Odyssey is a
unified case management system as defined by the National Center for State
Courts, Lehigh County will consolidate the functions of case processing --
imaging, accounting, calendaring, reporting, forms merge, and others -- for
multiple case types, all in a single software package.
Susan Schellenberg, Lehigh County District Court Administrator, recognized
Odyssey's potential. "We wanted to take a big technology step forward and not
be constrained by a system that we would outgrow in five years," commented Ms.
Schellenberg. "In Odyssey we saw a solution that had strong appeal to our
users and technical staff. Odyssey's user interface is intuitive and very
well designed. Its technology is built on commodity hardware, is easy to
administer, has built-in redundancy, and is highly scalable. No other system
even came close."
"This contract with Lehigh County demonstrates Odyssey's broad appeal,"
said Glenn Smith, President of Tyler's Courts and Justice Division. "Our
success in Minnesota, Florida, Georgia and now Pennsylvania is evidence of the
nationwide appeal of a system that is designed to move easily from state to
state."
