Tyler
Technologies Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today that its student
transportation solutions, including Versatrans® Routing &
Planning and Traversa®, have been selected to join the
Ontario Education Collaborative Marketplace (OECM) in Canada. OECM
provides cooperative purchasing services for 33 consortiums representing
71 school boards in Canada’s most populous province.
OECM conducted a rigorous procurement process which included evaluating
and testing each solution’s routing software and capabilities. Both of
Tyler’s routing solutions, Versatrans and Traversa, were selected. As a
supplier partner to OECM, Tyler will be able to provide its routing
system without school boards and consortiums having to conduct their own
competitive procurement.
“By joining OECM, we’re able to showcase our industry leading routing
and planning solutions to Ontario and its school districts,” said Ted
Thien, vice president and general manager of Tyler’s transportation
solutions. “We look forward to building long term partnerships with
these districts by helping them manage their school bus routing through
the use of our products, ultimately saving them time and money. Tyler’s
Traversa and Versatrans suites of products deliver intuitive,
comprehensive transportation management that is scalable to districts of
any size.”
Through this distinction, Tyler’s solutions can be selected to serve
more than 800,000 students that are transported daily in Ontario by
allowing for seamless interactions between route, vehicle, and student
data. Tyler transportation solutions offer online and mobile student
information portals to keep parents and students informed of bus route
changes or other routing alerts and provide fleet maintenance reporting
to ensure timely vehicle maintenance and avoid breakdowns.
Tyler offers a broad portfolio of school solutions in addition to
transportation software, including data analytics, document management,
incident management, student information, and financial management.
