We have developed and follow a proven implementation methodology specific to the needs of school districts. This methodology is based on three key areas:

• Experience — More than 30 years of public sector experience with a history of on time and on budget implementations.
• People — All Tyler implementations are planned, managed and executed by in-house experts and backed by Tyler’s comprehensive resources.
• Project Management Institute — PMI is a globally-recognized leader in the science of project management.

In addtion, all Tyler SIS implementations:

• Emphasize change management.
• Include critical review points.
• Are monitored throughout installation, data conversion and training.
• Consist of distinct phases.
• Offer several levels of project management.

Five Steps to a Successful Implementation
Our well-planned, closely monitored and controlled implementations are designed to maximize the return on your software investment. That’s because Tyler implementations are based on communication and a full partnership with key players within your organization.

Entering the Partnership
Our implementation team defines roles and responsibilities, sets expectations, identifies roadblocks and builds consensus within your organization. We host an informative kick off meeting and introduce you to your unique Client SharePoint site, a centralized Web portal for planning, storing and accessing documentation and implementation information.

Defining the Future
We will work with your organization’s key players to create a detailed project plan to meet your specific needs, challenges, schedule and more.

Moving Forward
Our expert Team is here to help you establish formal policies and procedures, as well as empower you with an understanding of the options and possibilities available by running Tyler SIS applications. We will make recommendations of solutions based on your district’s unique needs—and take into consideration future goals and plans. Conversion and training move forward in an easy and efficient way.

Ensuring Your Satisfaction
During implementation, control points are put in place. This ensures all needs have been met, each team member has accomplished his/her tasks and the project plan has been followed. Once implementation is completed, system testing begins.

Preparing for the Future
Our experts don’t just disappear once implementation is complete. We’ll help you transition to using our full Tyler SIS Support Services. And we’ll also introduce you to available informational libraries, tutorials, how-to documentation, release notes, incident tracking and more.
