Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Enhancement
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
ATCOG has identified critical gaps in its Emergency Operations Plans, communication plans, and public mass notification capabilities—particularly for its Housing program—while NIMS adoption and federal preparedness grant compliance mandates remain active drivers. Recent severe weather events and the absence of a dedicated mass notification platform elevate operational and community safety risk across the region.
The opportunity
Active Homeland Security grant cycles and confirmed budget increases for emergency radio infrastructure create a strong funding pathway ahead of the October 2026 fiscal year transition. Addressing these gaps now strengthens regional preparedness, satisfies federal compliance requirements, and positions the organization to fully leverage available grant dollars before the cycle closes.

High Priority
About this project
ATCOG operates regional 9-1-1 and emergency communications infrastructure with identified gaps in interoperability and Next Gen 9-1-1 readiness. These gaps elevate operational risk during critical incidents and conflict with federal preparedness compliance mandates including NIMS adoption requirements.
The opportunity
Active Homeland Security grant cycles and confirmed budget increases for emergency radio infrastructure create a near-term funding window. With a fiscal year transition on October 1, 2026, acting now ensures procurement aligns with available funding and strengthens regional emergency response outcomes.

Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
ATCOG faces active WCAG 2.1 compliance mandates requiring interval audits and document accessibility across public-facing digital assets. Partially addressed audit findings signal the need for sustainable, scalable systems to meet federal accessibility standards and reduce ongoing compliance risk.
The opportunity
Regulatory urgency around WCAG 2.1 and alignment with HUD program funding create a timely window to advance accessibility improvements within the current budget cycle. Cooperative purchasing pathways are available to streamline procurement and accelerate delivery of compliant, equitable public digital services.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
ATCOG's 54-vehicle passenger-facing fleet currently lacks dash-camera and telematics coverage, leaving the agency without incident documentation or proactive liability-defense capabilities. This gap exposes the organization to operational and legal risk in the event of a vehicle incident involving the public.
The opportunity
The ICAM Pilot Program grant directly aligns with fleet telematics investment, offering a near-term funding pathway with no incumbent solution to displace. Acting within the current grant window enables ATCOG to close a clear safety gap while stewarding public funds responsibly.
