Tyler brings enhancements to eFileTexas
solution to improve productivity statewide
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today an
agreement valued at $98 million over five years with the Texas
Office of Court Administration (OCA) to extend the use of Tyler’s
eFileTexas™ electronic filing solution through August 2027.
Tyler’s initial agreement with the Texas OCA is set to expire in
August of 2022. The state was required to go back out to bid for
its e-filing project and again selected Tyler to bring advanced
electronic filing to the state through at least 2027, with an
option to extend the terms through 2032. The eFileTexas solution
will continue to serve all of Texas’ 254 counties for both criminal
and non-criminal case types.
“We’ve achieved a great deal of success for our courts through
the use of eFileTexas,” said David Slayton, administrative director
of OCA. “Electronic filing has been key to the Texas Judiciary’s
ability to overcome disasters from hurricanes, to the COVID-19
pandemic, and to a ransomware attack. Through all of these
disasters, our courts have remained open and operational, and that
is due in large part to eFileTexas. It is a crucial function of our
judicial system, and I am excited to continue to improve the system
with new upgrades and features for our court community.”
This new project will bring a major set of enhancements to the
eFileTexas solution, including self-service administrative tools
and robust reporting capabilities for both program administrators
and clerks at the local level. The clerk reporting will allow
supervisors to better manage their office’s operations and make
their processes more streamlined.
Tyler has been working with the Texas OCA since it selected
Tyler’s Odyssey File & Serve™ solution for electronic filing in
2012. In September 2015, the Texas OCA and Tyler worked together to
successfully implement e-filing statewide for civil cases nine
months ahead of schedule, which remains the largest e-filing
implementation in the country. As a result of the successful
project, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals chose to expand the
scope of the e-filing initiative by mandating e-filing in criminal
cases, which was completed in December 2019.
“It’s been exciting to see the Texas OCA’s transformation to
becoming paperless since the beginning of our partnership with them
in 2012,” said Terry Derrick, general manager of eSolutions for
Tyler. “We’re very pleased to continue to provide our advanced
electronic filing solution to the state, bringing efficiencies to
its court processes and helping them improve access to justice for
all constituents.”
eFileTexas has more than 425,000 registered users and has
eliminated 420 million pages of paper since it was implemented in
2015. It is an open solution that is integrated with 25 other
entities, including 15 different electronic filing service
providers (EFSPs) and ten court case management systems, and it
drives further efficiencies and paper savings through those
systems.
