Emergency Operations Plan Compliance & Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district is actively revising its Emergency Operations Plan under Michigan statutory requirements, with no public last-review date and an Emergency Preparedness Score of 2—indicating significant gaps in documentation, exercises, and mass-notification readiness. An October 1, 2026 compliance deadline for behavioral threat assessment and EOP updates elevates both operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
State-mandated deadlines and recently approved FY2026–27 budgets create a clear, near-term procurement window, and the district may qualify as a subapplicant for federal preparedness grants with deadlines in mid-2026. Acting now ensures compliance, closes readiness gaps, and protects students, staff, and the broader community before the mandate takes effect.

Student Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
Michigan statute mandates a student behavioral threat assessment plan be in place by October 1, 2026, adding a distinct compliance layer to existing EOP requirements. Without a documented program, the district faces regulatory non-compliance and elevated safety risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
The October 1, 2026 statutory deadline makes this a non-discretionary, near-term priority with active leadership and budget alignment for the upcoming fiscal cycle. FEMA BRIC and HSGP grant windows offer eligible funding paths, and recently approved 2026–27 budgets create a timely procurement opportunity.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's mass notification contract status and lifecycle plan are unconfirmed, with the Emergency Preparedness Gap assessment flagging this capability as a key deficiency. Without a clear renewal or replacement path, the district risks a lapse in critical communications during emergencies, compounding existing EOP compliance gaps under Michigan statutory requirements.
The opportunity
A state-mandated threat assessment plan deadline of October 2026 and active EOP review create an urgent, defined procurement window. FEMA BRIC and HSGP grants—with deadlines in July 2026—offer direct funding eligibility, and confirmed cooperative procurement availability supports a streamlined, budget-aligned path forward.

Emergency Management · School Safety Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks documented HSEEP-style emergency preparedness exercises, contributing to an Emergency Preparedness Score of 2 and limiting staff readiness. This gap creates measurable compliance exposure under Michigan EOP review mandates and state behavioral threat assessment requirements.
The opportunity
A state-mandated threat assessment and EOP compliance deadline of October 2026 creates a defined procurement window, and the district is eligible for FEMA HSGP funding to offset costs. Acting now allows exercise programming to advance alongside active EOP and reunification planning efforts already underway.

Discuss this project →Enterprise Credential Security for District-Wide Access Control
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks an enterprise password and credential management solution, leaving access controls unstructured across staff and systems. This gap increases exposure to unauthorized access, data breaches, and audit risk across a moderately sized district serving over 3,300 students.
The opportunity
Cybersecurity funding through FEMA BRIC and HSGP grant programs, with deadlines in July 2026, may support acquisition, and the district's confirmed use of cooperative purchasing streamlines procurement. Acting within the current fiscal cycle closes a clear security gap and strengthens the district's overall cyber posture.
