Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Infrastructure
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a mass notification system, and a designated Emergency Management Coordinator — gaps that create direct compliance risk under EMPG, NIMS, and PA 390 mandates. Participation in regional Hazard Mitigation Planning further underscores the urgency of formalizing preparedness infrastructure before consequences of non-compliance materialize.
The opportunity
The FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program explicitly supports emergency management technology procurement with a July 2026 deadline, offering a defined funding window aligned with near-term budget cycles. Acting now positions the department ahead of the CMHOC Authority transition and the FY2027 budget hearing in August 2026, reducing both compliance exposure and organizational risk.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department has no identified mass notification system and no documented integration with county alert infrastructure, limiting reliable outreach to staff and residents during emergencies. This gap creates direct operational risk and conflicts with EMPG, NIMS, and PA 390 compliance mandates.
The opportunity
The FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program explicitly supports mass notification technology and carries a July 2026 deadline, creating a near-term funding window. Acting now closes a documented compliance gap, enables geo-targeted alerting through existing county GIS infrastructure, and strengthens community-wide emergency response before the FY2027 budget cycle.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
No password or credential management solution has been identified for the department, creating a measurable cybersecurity gap. The ongoing transition to an Authority structure amplifies risk, as technology controls may not keep pace with organizational change.
The opportunity
An existing IT budget allocation and FY 2026 grant eligibility for cybersecurity solutions create a near-term funding path. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports compliance posture and reduces credential-based risk before the Authority transition takes effect.

Discuss this project →Website Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The organization has identified website digital accessibility as a strategic commitment, but no formal compliance deadline or remediation plan is currently documented. Without structured progress, the entity faces growing legal and reputational risk under federal accessibility mandates affecting public-facing digital services.
The opportunity
Accessibility improvements may be partially eligible under current grant windows, and aligning this work with the upcoming FY2027 budget cycle supports responsible IT stewardship. Phasing remediation by risk severity allows progress within a modest IT budget while reducing compliance exposure.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
Blendon Township's Fire Department lacks documented dash cameras or telematics, creating measurable risk exposure under a paid-on-call staffing model. A potential new tanker truck acquisition may further expand fleet monitoring needs without a system in place to support oversight or driver accountability.
The opportunity
Pairing a prospective vehicle purchase with a telematics solution creates a near-term window to address safety proactively before risk exposure grows. Cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Sourcewell, MiDEAL, or TIPS can simplify procurement and align with upcoming FY budget planning cycles.
