Emergency Operations Plan Review & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a compliance mandate to review its Emergency Operations Plan under Michigan Publication 201, while decreasing EMPG grant funding has created a gap in emergency management capabilities. The current mass notification platform may no longer fully meet operational needs, elevating risk to public safety continuity.
The opportunity
FY2025 EMPG grant approval and the upcoming 2026 budget adoption create a near-term window to address compliance and modernize emergency notification capabilities. Acting now aligns procurement with active funding cycles and supports a recent leadership transition with continuity and strengthened public readiness.
Cybersecurity Controls & Endpoint Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A recent cybersecurity purchase approval has opened an active implementation window, but the county's split Microsoft environment—on-premise Office 2024 alongside M365 for email—leaves gaps in unified credential and endpoint oversight. General cybersecurity compliance mandates elevate the risk of unmanaged endpoints and inconsistent access controls across county systems.
The opportunity
The active procurement cycle and confirmed budget signals create a near-term window to close endpoint and credential management gaps before they become audit or incident liabilities. Relevant grant programs, including JAG, may support cybersecurity investments, and cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline acquisition within the current fiscal timeline.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county's public-facing website must meet WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards by April 2026, a hard federal mandate under ADA. Non-compliance exposes the county to legal liability and restricts equitable public access to essential government services.
The opportunity
The April 2026 deadline creates a defined procurement window within the current fiscal cycle, making near-term action critical. Addressing compliance now reduces legal risk, ensures equitable digital access for all residents, and aligns with the county's active budget and planning calendar.

Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The county has addressed immediate vehicle recording gaps through in-car and body camera investments, but real-time fleet monitoring and driver behavior data capabilities remain incomplete. These telematics gaps limit operational visibility and present ongoing risk to public safety accountability and fleet management oversight.
The opportunity
JAG and COPS TEP grant programs offer viable funding paths for fleet safety technology, aligning with the county's proactive public safety posture. Addressing remaining telematics gaps now supports incremental improvement within an active budget and grant cycle, reducing long-term operational and liability risk.
New Law Enforcement Facility IT & Infrastructure Buildout
Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A new county Law Enforcement Facility is advancing as a major capital initiative, creating foundational procurement needs across networking, physical security, communications, and end-user computing. Early planning decisions will shape infrastructure standards and procurement pathways for the facility's full operational lifecycle.
The opportunity
Engaging during the planning phase allows the county to align specifications with cooperative procurement vehicles and eligible public safety grant funding, including JAG and COPS TEP. Decisions made now will determine long-term operational efficiency, interoperability, and cost outcomes for the facility.
