Emergency Operations Plan Development & Exercise Tracking
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Incomplete EOP documentation and fragmented communications infrastructure present critical compliance and operational gaps, with Michigan's EOP review cycle creating a near-term mandate. Recent declared emergencies and exercises underscore the urgency of establishing a structured, auditable emergency operations framework.
The opportunity
Multiple federal and state grant programs — including HSGP and JAG — identify emergency preparedness as a priority funding area, with current windows aligning to this agency's planning cycle. Acting now addresses compliance deadlines, reduces operational risk, and leverages $400k+ in existing public safety budget capacity.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Critical communication coverage gaps and fragmented mass-notification systems are undermining emergency response reliability across the region, including documented failures in outlying areas. A $2M+ regional radio and tower initiative is actively in planning, with procurement underway and a 2026 Capital Improvement Plan entry confirmed.
The opportunity
Active procurement timelines and a confirmed capital budget create a near-term decision window to close life-safety communication gaps. State and federal public-safety funding increases, including grant programs aligned to emergency communications, support strong cost-sharing potential. Advancing this project now reduces operational risk and strengthens regional emergency response outcomes.
Mass Notification Consolidation for Emergency Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Fragmented mass-notification infrastructure and uncoordinated public-alert outreach create critical gaps in emergency communications, elevating risk to residents and first responders. With EOP review cycles mandated and active communication failures documented, operational and compliance exposure is high.
The opportunity
Significant state and federal public-safety funding—including grants aligned to emergency preparedness—is available now, with cooperative procurement pathways that reduce administrative burden. Consolidating notification systems this fiscal cycle strengthens response continuity, closes compliance gaps, and improves outcomes for the communities served.
CAD and GIS Modernization for Dispatch Operations
Public Safety Technology · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The 2026 Capital Improvement Plan includes budget-approved upgrades to CAD software and GIS deployment, with underlying infrastructure dependencies—including database renewal—tied directly to dispatch operations. Delays or integration gaps in these systems elevate operational risk for emergency response continuity.
The opportunity
With CIP funding approved and a defined 2026 procurement timeline already in motion, this is an optimal window to ensure interoperability, reduce infrastructure risk, and align modernization efforts with state and federal public safety funding streams. Acting within the current fiscal cycle protects both operational readiness and stewardship of committed public funds.

Discuss this project →Credential Security & Access Management Modernization
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
This agency lacks a documented password management policy, creating measurable gaps in credential hygiene and access control. CJIS compliance obligations make remediation non-discretionary, elevating audit and operational risk for public safety personnel and sensitive data systems.
The opportunity
With over $600K in annual IT and software spend and active cybersecurity modernization already a strategic priority, budget alignment for access management improvements is within reach this fiscal cycle. Addressing credential gaps now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens the security posture of critical public safety infrastructure.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
This agency's public-facing digital infrastructure lacks a documented accessibility compliance plan or active remediation effort, creating ongoing legal exposure under federal accessibility mandates. Unaddressed gaps risk excluding residents from essential services and invite regulatory scrutiny.
The opportunity
Accessibility remediation aligns with current federal compliance expectations and may be eligible for IT modernization or equity-focused funding in the upcoming fiscal cycle. Acting now reduces legal and reputational risk while improving equitable public access to government services.
