Tyler’s Socrata solution helps federal, state,
and local agencies improve data sharing
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL), the largest software
company in North America solely focused on providing integrated
software and technology services to the public sector, celebrates
the first anniversary of the Foundations for Evidence-Based
Policymaking Act.
This legislation provides official guidance for drafting and
implementing comprehensive data strategies at the federal
level.
“As a technology company trusted by thousands of clients and
millions of people, we believe it is important for governments to
collaborate, innovate, and modernize how they use data,” said Tyler
Chief Strategy Officer Jeff Puckett. “In the past year, we’ve seen
agencies make significant progress in hiring chief data officers,
adopting rules to govern the use of data, and breaking down the
silos that prevented information and insights from being
shared.”
Data sharing and collaboration help governments create
meaningful outcomes for the public they serve. For example, in
addressing systemic challenges such as the opioid crisis,
recidivism, or workforce development, government leaders can tap
into their data to develop effective solutions, measure whether
they work, and widely scale those that are proven for
cost-effective outcomes.
Since 2009, Tyler’s Socrata® solution has enabled government
agencies to publish and share data with the public in open formats
with the Socrata Open Data API. Successful Socrata Open Data
clients include
- U.S. Department of Transportation, which uses the Socrata
platform to share state crash data, enabling access to data from
intelligent transportation systems technologies, and driving
data-informed policy-making
- U.S. Department of Commerce, which uses the Socrata performance
application to share detailed datasets, data stories,
visualizations, and dashboards on how it is helping the American
economy grow
- Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which uses Socrata
data visualization tools to identify areas of disparities between
subgroups of Medicare beneficiaries in health outcomes,
utilization, and spending. These insights are used by stakeholders
to inform policy decisions, target populations or geographic areas
for interventions, and understand racial and ethnic differences in
health outcomes.
Over the past year, many federal agencies chose Tyler to support
their work in improving statistical analysis, standardizing data
available to the public, and supporting evidence-based
policymaking. The Socrata solution helps agencies enable compliance
with this law and helps them unlock the full potential of their
information resources.
“Federal agencies, especially, need tools to work together
across jurisdictions, share information, and integrate workflows,”
Puckett said. “We want to help open the door for federal agencies
to connect to organizations on the state and local levels and with
their constituents like never before.”
“You see federal agencies improving data access and designing
programs that target outcomes with data,” said Franklin Williams,
president of Tyler’s Data & Insights Division. “All this effort
helps government make smart decisions about every dollar it spends,
while improving collaboration and spurring innovation.”
Socrata, Tyler’s flagship data and insights solution, provides
easy-to-deploy and FedRAMP-accredited cloud technology to unlock
siloed government data and put it at the heart of every government
program. Socrata’s proven and rigorous success methodology,
combined with experienced domain experts in Washington, D.C., will
help federal agencies evolve quickly from compliance with the law
to making data a central component of every government program. All
this is possible while creating a sustainable open architecture for
their data sharing and analytics efforts.
