Licensure Software Modernization & Digital Service Delivery
IT Modernization · Digital Service Delivery
High Priority
About this project
Legislative mandate HB 2029/SB 2579 requires the board to modernize its licensure software and expand digital service functions by January 2028. The current system does not fully support expanded board duties or accessible online service delivery, creating compliance and operational risk as the deadline approaches.
The opportunity
With $51,114 already allocated in FY 2026–27 and a statutory deadline established, the procurement window is defined and near-term. Acting now ensures alignment with WCAG 2.1 accessibility mandates, supports expanded board operations, and avoids compliance exposure ahead of the January 2028 deadline.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The board is subject to a WCAG 2.1 Level AA mandate for executive-branch web communications, and current digital portals, online forms, and complaint workflows may carry unresolved accessibility gaps. Ongoing modernization of board licensing rules further requires accessible electronic submissions, elevating both compliance and operational risk.
The opportunity
FY 2026–27 budget allocations are already designated for licensure-software updates, creating a funded, near-term window to address accessibility compliance. Acting within this cycle reduces audit exposure, supports equitable public access to board services, and aligns with enacted statutory requirements ahead of the January 2028 implementation deadline.

Cybersecurity Compliance · Credential Management
High Priority
About this project
The board operates under active Tennessee enterprise cybersecurity mandates and TDH HIPAA policies requiring documented password and credential management controls. No current solution is in place at the board level, creating an enforceable compliance gap that statewide contract expirations may further expose.
The opportunity
A state cybersecurity grant program with a December 2025 deadline offers a near-term funding pathway, and no incumbent solution creates a clear window for first-time acquisition. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces audit exposure and aligns with active compliance enforcement.

Discuss this project →Close Emergency Preparedness & Notification Gaps
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The board lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, confirmed mass-notification coverage, and recorded participation in preparedness exercises. This gap creates measurable compliance and operational risk, particularly as HB 2029/SB 2579 expands the board's statutory duties and public-facing responsibilities.
The opportunity
Expanding statutory obligations under enacted legislation create a clear trigger to formalize emergency preparedness before new duties take effect. Addressing coverage gaps now reduces compliance exposure and positions the board to meet continuity requirements within its current planning and budget cycle.
