Web Accessibility Compliance Remediation by March 2026
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Bexar County faces a mandatory WCAG 2.1 accessibility compliance deadline of March 2026, with current digital properties requiring structured remediation to meet federal standards. Failure to comply risks legal exposure and inequitable access to public services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
A dedicated $405,000 budget is already approved, and the fixed March 2026 deadline demands procurement action now to allow sufficient remediation time. Cooperative purchasing vehicles may accelerate the formal bid process, enabling the county to meet its mandate and ensure equitable public access.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Bexar County has approved $4.2M to refresh its network firewall infrastructure while advancing broader cybersecurity compliance efforts, including IoT security hardening and network access control upgrades. A newly established Security Compliance Analyst role signals growing organizational commitment to reducing exposure and meeting security mandates.
The opportunity
With funding approved and security staffing now in place, the county is positioned to move forward within the current procurement cycle. Addressing firewall and network access gaps now reduces compliance risk, strengthens operational continuity, and aligns with active IT investment priorities ahead of formal bid timelines.

IT Modernization · Endpoint Security
High Priority
About this project
Bexar County has approved $5.35M for PC replacement and is actively reallocating budget toward integrated endpoint management. Aging devices and fragmented endpoint oversight create operational risk and potential security compliance gaps across county departments.
The opportunity
With funding approved and procurement underway, this initiative is positioned for near-term action within the current fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles available to government entities can streamline acquisition and accelerate deployment timelines.

Discuss this project →Emergency Notification Consolidation & EOP Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Frio County's Emergency Operations Plan is overdue for its required annual review, and existing mass notification infrastructure—spanning flood sirens and a victim notification platform—remains fragmented and unverified for HSEEP compliance. These gaps create measurable operational and regulatory risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
Recent turnover in the Office of Emergency Management, combined with available fire prevention grant funding aligned to pre-incident planning, creates a timely window to consolidate systems and close compliance gaps. Acting within the current grant cycle supports mission readiness while leveraging existing public safety budget capacity.

Emergency Management · Fire & Life Safety
High Priority
About this project
Bigfoot VFD has identified gaps in pre-incident planning capabilities, limiting firefighter preparedness and community risk reduction. Without structured pre-incident data, volunteer crews face elevated operational risk when responding to structure fires and complex incidents.
The opportunity
The FM Global Fire Prevention Grant explicitly identifies pre-incident planning software as an eligible use, creating a direct, low-barrier funding pathway for this initiative. Acting within the current grant window allows the department to close preparedness gaps while aligning with regional emergency preparedness mandates.

Discuss this project →Fleet Acquisition & Vehicle Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
Bexar County has approved $22.8M for fleet acquisition and identified vehicle tracking and telematics as a strategic priority. Aging vehicle risk and limited fleet visibility create operational gaps that, if unaddressed, may affect service delivery and asset accountability over time.
The opportunity
With acquisition funding already approved, the current fiscal window is the right moment to integrate telematics capabilities and maximize the return on this public investment. Cooperative purchasing vehicles may streamline procurement, and the Rural Volunteer Fire Department Assistance Program offers supplemental funding alignment for eligible fleet needs.
