Summary
After a year‑long procurement the council unanimously approved Tyler Technologies as the city’s new integrated ERP vendor, with a $600,520 one‑time implementation/conversion cost and $143,090 projected recurring annual fees; staff said funding was identified for the one‑time cost and implementation spans about 21 months.
Councilors unanimously approved staff’s recommendation to contract with Tyler Technologies for a new integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Bill (finance director) summarized a year‑long selection process that produced six proposals, three finalists and two full‑day demonstrations; the evaluation committee recommended Tyler as the only fully integrated solution that met requirements on a single platform.
Bill told the council the recommended contract includes a one‑time implementation and conversion cost of $600,520 and recurring annual fees of $143,090; staff said resources have been identified to cover the one‑time cost and that the new system will replace the city’s current financial, payroll/HR and utility billing systems on a 21‑month implementation timeline. He highlighted improved purchasing capabilities, vendor portals, integrated GIS support for utilities, and advanced budgeting/forecasting tools.
Council approved the recommendation unanimously. Staff said they would return with implementation details and budget language for future budgets to incorporate the ongoing recurring costs.
