Overview
Tyler Enterprise ERP, built on the long-running Munis platform, is Tyler Technologies' integrated ERP solution for the public sector. It is aimed at local governments, counties, school districts, and special districts (water authorities, transit agencies) that need a single system covering financials, HR, payroll, procurement, and revenue collection funded by tax dollars and governed by a public board.
The financial management core covers general ledger with fund-balance tracking, budgeting and budget monitoring, and standardized procurement with approval workflows and vendor management. Beyond core financials, the suite extends into utility billing automation and licensing, permitting, and code-enforcement revenue management, alongside HR and payroll administration for public-sector workforces.
Tyler offers Enterprise ERP in cloud, on-premise, and hybrid deployment models, with cloud hosting delivered through Amazon Web Services GovCloud to meet public-sector security and compliance expectations. Munis was historically sold under that name and has since been rebranded to Enterprise ERP under Tyler Technologies, a public-sector software company traded on the NYSE.
