Largest SaaS agreement to date for Tyler
Technologies enables “virtual courthouse” with statewide e-filing
and online access to justice
Tyler Technologies Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today that it has
signed an agreement, valued at nearly $85 million over 10 years,
with the North Carolina Administrative Office of the Courts (NCAOC)
and North Carolina Judicial Branch for several products from
Tyler’s Odyssey® suite, including Odyssey Case Manager™, Odyssey
File & Serve™, and Odyssey Attorney Manager™. This agreement is
Tyler’s largest ever software-as-a-service (SaaS) agreement and
will be the largest statewide Odyssey implementation by
population.
In 2017, the North Carolina Commission on the Administration of
Law & Justice (NCCALJ) conducted a comprehensive review of
North Carolina’s court system and provided recommendations for
improving the administration of justice. The NCCALJ Technology
Committee recommended the development of the state’s eCourts
Strategic Technology Plan and the creation of an Integrated Case
Management System (ICMS). The North Carolina Judicial Branch
envisions a court system that will fulfill the vision of a 21st
century courthouse – where technology is used to enhance
efficiency, effectiveness, and timeliness of process, leading to
greater public access to and increased confidence in the
courts.
“Creating an electronic statewide court system is a major
undertaking,” said McKinley Wooten, NCAOC interim director. “We are
thrilled to make this leap forward with Tyler’s Odyssey solution to
help us achieve our vision of a virtual courthouse, where paper
processes are a thing of the past and efficiencies are gained by
Judicial Branch offices across North Carolina. Ultimately, we are
leveraging technology to provide greater access to the courts.”
Following a multi-year, competitive, and nationwide procurement,
the NCAOC selected Tyler to provide the ICMS and support the
components of a virtual courthouse, including statewide e-filing,
enabling paperless processes, automating workflows, and supporting
online access to the judicial system.
“North Carolina’s vision of a unified electronic courts
environment aligns with Tyler’s vision to enhance the experience
for everyone impacted by the justice system in the state,” said
Rusty Smith, president of Tyler’s Courts & Justice Division.
“We look forward to helping North Carolina empower its legal
community – including judges, court staff, clerks, district
attorneys, public defenders, attorneys, and the public – with tools
that will improve all aspects of court case management.”
North Carolina is the nation’s ninth most populous state with
more than 10 million residents. The agreement with the NCAOC marks
Tyler’s 15th statewide agreement for Odyssey. Tyler’s Odyssey
solutions accurately handle millions of court case transactions
every week and serve more than 45% of the U.S. population.
