The City of Hagerstown selected a range of applications from Tyler’s MUNIS financial and human resource product suites. It also purchased MUNIS revenue modules, including Maryland Tax and Utility Billing. Hagerstown will employ several integrated solutions to optimize reporting and customer service. These include MUNIS Business Objects, Tyler Content Manager for MUNIS, Tyler Forms Processing, and MUNIS Citizen and Business Self Service.

Scott Nicewarner, IT manager for Hagerstown, said that the City was in need of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution vendor that would partner with the City to meet its current and future needs. “Having used the same mainframe system for over 25 years, we needed to find a software vendor that would be a partner in the process and not just an implementer. We feel that Tyler fit this criterion very well. Tyler’s MUNIS system proved to be the most comprehensive integrated financial solution for the City of Hagerstown,” he explained.

Located in western Maryland, Hagerstown was founded in 1762 by Jonathan Hager. The city has a population of 39,000 and serves as the county seat for Washington County. Hagerstown is a convenient distance to both Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

Based in Dallas, Tyler Technologies is a leading provider of end-to-end information management solutions and services for local governments.
