Tyler Technologies, Inc., recently announced the grand opening of its new manufacturing facility in Kingston Springs, Tenn., to support the growth of its Enterprise Corrections software for correctional facilities, including administration, financial management, communications and re-entry solutions, the company announced in a press release.
The new facility enables the manufacturing, assembly and production of proprietary hardware that supports Tyler’s Enterprise Corrections software, including correctional-grade kiosks, tablets, charging solutions, handheld mobile devices and mobile carts.
Enterprise Corrections is a holistic hardware, software, and app-based package uniquely designed to be used by correctional facilities for financial and communications management while providing incarcerated individuals with specialized tools for electronic messaging with family members, online deposit systems, video visitation, trust account management systems and more.
“We are thrilled to officially open our new facility in Kingston Springs,” Rusty Smith, president of Tyler’s Justice Group, said in the release. “Nashville metro is an important region for Tyler as we continue to support and grow our employee base while serving more than 150 jurisdictions across the state of Tennessee. This new space allows us to more than double the current production capacity of our hardware kiosks. With all manufacturing capabilities now done in-house, what was formerly a six-to-eight-week kiosk manufacturing process now only takes three days. This will allow us to meet the growing demand for Tyler’s corrections solutions and expand these capabilities across other solutions in our portfolio.”
At 21,000 square feet, the facility is one of the largest manufacturing facilities in the area. The building was constructed with environmentally friendly elements, such as 100 percent recycled steel. Metal buildings have lower environmental impacts compared to other commonly used materials. Additionally, the facility recycles old kiosks, lowering Tyler’s overall environmental footprint.
“We are excited to officially welcome Tyler employees to Kingston Springs with the opening of their new facility,” Kingston Springs Mayor Tony Gross said. “This is a fast-growing area, and we’re happy that Tyler has chosen to be a permanent part of the community here.”
