Consolidate Identity and Access Control Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county operates a fragmented identity and access management environment with multiple competing tools, creating measurable security and governance risk. An audit finding of $259,000 in untagged IT equipment and active cybersecurity insurance mandates underscore the urgency of consolidating access control under a unified, compliant system.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget includes a dedicated $117K cybersecurity allocation and $1.5M in software licenses, with cooperative purchasing available to streamline procurement. New IT leadership and active compliance pressure create an immediate window to reduce risk, satisfy insurance requirements, and strengthen public-sector data governance.

IT Modernization · Asset Management
High Priority
About this project
An audit identified $259,000 in untagged IT equipment, exposing significant gaps in asset tracking and inventory control that elevate financial and operational risk. Active solicitations for endpoint hardware and an IT consultant signal an in-progress infrastructure refresh, with asset management named a top strategic priority.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget allocates $1.5M for software licenses with a strategic focus on IT and cybersecurity infrastructure, creating a well-funded window to close asset visibility gaps. Incoming IT leadership and cooperative purchasing availability support an accelerated, cost-effective path to modernization aligned with current fiscal planning.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A major flooding incident has triggered a mandatory After-Action Review and Improvement Plan (AAR/IP), creating a compliance-level mandate for emergency management upgrades. Combined with identified gaps in the current mass notification system and recent leadership turnover in the Emergency Management Coordinator role, the county faces compounding preparedness and operational continuity risks.
The opportunity
The AAR/IP mandate establishes a non-discretionary, time-sensitive requirement, and incoming EM leadership creates a natural window for system evaluation and modernization. Emergency management planning initiatives are broadly eligible for state and federal preparedness funding, and action now reduces both compliance exposure and risk to residents during future incidents.

Facility Safety & Compliance · Corrections Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The county jail requires both physical fire alarm system upgrades and an integrated incident management capability to meet facility safety and compliance standards. Aging or inadequate life-safety infrastructure in a corrections environment elevates risk to staff, detainees, and the county's liability posture.
The opportunity
This initiative is a high-urgency priority within the county's FY2027 planning cycle, with cooperative purchasing vehicles available to streamline procurement and reduce administrative burden. Addressing it now supports compliance, protects life safety, and aligns with active budget allocations for public safety infrastructure.

Discuss this project →Ambulance Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Safety Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The county has experienced recent auto accidents within its fleet and currently invests in in-car safety cameras but lacks telematics capabilities to proactively manage driver behavior, vehicle health, and incident response. This gap presents ongoing safety and liability risk to EMS personnel, patients, and the public, while active fleet replacement initiatives signal growing operational complexity.
The opportunity
A $350,000 Rural Ambulance Service Grant provides a defined funding path to address fleet safety and telematics needs with limited impact on the general fund. Acting within the current grant cycle allows the county to reduce accident-related liability, improve EMS response outcomes, and align fleet investments with active replacement planning.

Discuss this project →Document Management & Digital Content Licensing Expansion
Document Management · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county maintains active document creation and digital content management licenses with an established budget line already designated for FY2027, signaling a recognized operational need. Existing web platforms and content workflows create a natural path for expanding or upgrading current capabilities to improve staff productivity and public-facing service delivery.
The opportunity
A confirmed FY2027 software license budget allocation and an overall IT and software spend exceeding $1.7M annually provide a ready funding framework for this expansion. Acting within the current budget cycle reduces procurement friction and supports continuity of county operations and digital service delivery.
