DALLAS--Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today that it has signed contracts totaling approximately $1.5 million to provide product upgrades to Bernalillo County in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the Town of Brookhaven, New York, for Tyler's Appraisal & Tax Solution, iasWorld.
Designed by industry professionals, iasWorld provides Web-based, GIS enabled tools to help jurisdictions manage appraisal business processes and the entire property tax life-cycle. It is a comprehensive solution delivering powerful tools for computer-aided mass appraisal, personal property valuation, assessment administration, tax billing and much more. Bernalillo County and the Town of Brookhaven are gaining additional flexibility and power with this unified appraisal system as well as a more robust appraisal search tool for their constituents.
"We are pleased to integrate iasWorld into the assessor's office database. It has been a priority to make these needed upgrades," said Karen L. Montoya, Bernalillo County assessor. "I feel that the implementation will aid in fusing employee tasks. We will be able to gather internal information rapidly and provide taxpayers with a new search system. I am proud of this extraordinary integrated system's advancement which has been years in the making."
"We are excited that Bernalillo County and the Town of Brookhaven have chosen to reinvest in Tyler," commented Andrew Teed, president of Tyler's Appraisal & Tax solutions. "iasWorld is a truly integrated solution that will enable both counties to streamline their processes and improve overall efficiency."
The most populous county in New Mexico, Bernalillo County is located within the Albuquerque metropolitan area and is home to over 635,000 people. By successfully implementing Tyler's electronic recording solution, Bernalillo County recently earned a Technology Excellence Award from The New Mexico Technology Council (NMTC). The Bernalillo Metropolitan Court also uses Tyler's Odysseyr courts and justice solution as a part of an agreement to provide the State of New Mexico's judiciary with the integrated case management software solution.
The Town of Brookhaven stretches from the North Shore to the South Shore of Long Island, New York, in Suffolk County. Part of the New York City metropolitan area, the town has a population of more than 400,000 and is the second most populous town in New York.
