Tyler Excellence Awards for Public Sector Organizations

At Tyler Technologies, we are motivated and inspired by the clients we serve. That’s why we established the Tyler Excellence Awards – a program designed to highlight the impact of Tyler software and solutions made possible by our clients. Since 2010, we have honored more than 300 organizations and the unsung heroes behind the work that leads to more efficient, effective, and connected communities.

TEA winners receive complimentary travel, accommodations, and registration to our annual Connect user conference. Winners are also recognized through the presentation of an engraved crystal award, exclusive opportunities during the conference, and storytelling and educational programs to further amplify their success stories.


The Tyler Excellence Awards were established to acknowledge clients who demonstrate leadership, innovation, and excellence in developing, deploying, and maintaining Tyler solutions in impactful ways — because our clients are a big part of why our solutions are so successful.

Share how your organization has realized high-impact value, either Return on Effort (ROE) or Return on Investment (ROI), with a Tyler solution by submitting your nomination to win. Share your organization's unique insight into using your Tyler solutions today!

We hope to see you at Connect 2025 in San Antonio, Texas, Sunday, May 11 - Wednesday, May 14, 2025
