EOC Enhancement & Emergency Preparedness Integration
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city has identified critical gaps in its Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, outdoor warning system SOPs, and mass notification platform—currently opt-in only with no documented contract renewal or testing. A fragmented ecosystem between alerting, EOC, CAD, and 311 functions elevates operational and NIMS compliance risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
The September 2026 budget decision window and a dedicated emergency management technology budget create immediate momentum for action. Federal grant programs such as HSGP and EMPG offer eligible funding pathways, and a newly onboarded Emergency Operations Manager is actively positioned to lead technology evaluation and CEMP remediation.
ADA Digital Accessibility Compliance Modernization
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a mandatory WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 2027 for all public-facing digital portals, with a citywide ADA assessment already identified as a strategic priority. The November 2026 expiration of the existing website platform contract creates an immediate decision point, and failure to act risks legal exposure and inequitable access to public services.
The opportunity
The converging November 2026 contract expiration and April 2027 federal deadline create a defined procurement window that aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle. A budgeted Enterprise Content Management initiative ($125K) and active use of cooperative purchasing vehicles support an accelerated, cost-effective path to compliance.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department has documented fleet-involved accidents and is expanding its ambulance and patrol vehicle fleet, creating urgent demand for integrated telematics, GPS tracking, dash cameras, and maintenance monitoring. Legacy fleet management platforms and fragmented data management introduce operational risk and limit visibility across emergency vehicle operations.
The opportunity
Active capital budget allocations for patrol vehicles and fleet infrastructure, combined with cooperative purchasing agreements, provide a streamlined procurement path in the current fiscal cycle. Modernizing fleet telematics now reduces collision risk, supports emergency vehicle operations, and aligns with approved strategic initiatives already funded in the FY 2026–2027 budget.

IT Modernization · Infrastructure Resilience
High Priority
About this project
The city has identified Windows 11 endpoint modernization and server replacement as strategic priorities, with a $259K Equipment Replacement Fund line item in the proposed FY 2026–2027 budget. Aging infrastructure and funded disaster-recovery improvements signal active gaps in operational continuity and technology stability across city departments.
The opportunity
The September 2026 budget decision window and an approved IT investment framework — including a dedicated Strategic Technology Initiatives Project Manager — create a near-term procurement opportunity aligned with current fiscal planning. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are already in use, providing an established and compliant path to procurement.
Cybersecurity Compliance & Credential Management
Cybersecurity Compliance · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively pursuing Texas Cyberstar Certification, with a dedicated $25K IT Certification Program budget line, but existing identity and access management controls may be insufficient to meet certification requirements. Gaps in credential management elevate risk to city systems, sensitive data, and continuity of public services.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes dedicated cybersecurity certification funding, and grant opportunities such as JAG align with eligible cybersecurity investments, reducing local cost burden. Acting within the current budget cycle positions the city to achieve certification, satisfy compliance mandates, and strengthen its security posture before the next review window.
Enterprise Content Management Platform Modernization
IT Modernization · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes $125K earmarked for an Enterprise Content Management platform, aligned with active digital transformation and ADA/WCAG 2.1 compliance goals. Without a centralized ECM solution, document workflows remain fragmented and the city risks falling short of its April 2027 accessibility deadline.
The opportunity
Funding is approved and available in the current budget cycle, with a September 2026 procurement decision window creating near-term urgency. Coordinating ECM selection alongside the expiring web platform contract maximizes efficiency and supports WCAG compliance before the April 2027 mandate.
