Fleet Telematics & Safety Expansion
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent Fleet Management audit cited operational deficiencies, and significant general liability claims backed by a $29.9M Property and Casualty Fund underscore the urgency for expanded vehicle tracking and driver behavior monitoring. Gaps in telematics coverage increase exposure to liability risk and limit the city's ability to defend against claims or enforce safe driving standards.
The opportunity
A budget-approved vehicle tracking expansion initiative and active FY2027 planning create a near-term procurement window to address audit findings and reduce liability exposure. Expanding telematics and dash camera coverage now supports risk mitigation, strengthens operational accountability, and aligns with the city's goal to reduce and defensibly manage general liability claims.
Cybersecurity Program & Identity Management Modernization
Cybersecurity Compliance · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
A Texas-mandated cybersecurity training and local-government compliance certification deadline of August 2026, a concurrent security contract expiration, and an active FY2025 cybersecurity audit create compounding operational and compliance risk. Budget-approved initiatives including Multi-Factor Authentication and a broader cybersecurity program signal institutional readiness but require timely execution.
The opportunity
Converging deadlines in 2026 — certification, contract expiration, and FY2027 budget approval — create a narrow window to act with allocated funding. A proposed $8.4M cybersecurity budget increase and eligibility for federal homeland security grants strengthen the case for advancing this project now.
CAD System Disaster Recovery Site Buildout
Emergency Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The current CAD system lacks a dedicated disaster recovery site, creating a critical resilience gap for public safety dispatch operations. An expiring cloud security contract in November 2026 compounds this risk, making infrastructure continuity decisions urgent ahead of FY2027 budget cycles.
The opportunity
FY2027 budget planning includes over $101M in disaster recovery funding, and federal emergency preparedness grants such as HSGP and EMPG offer eligible funding pathways. Acting within the current fiscal window ensures continuity of dispatch operations and aligns infrastructure decisions before the contract expiration deadline.
Emergency Operations & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Critical gaps in emergency preparedness — including an unresolved Emergency Operations Plan status, no identified mass notification system, and no named Emergency Management Coordinator — leave residents and staff exposed. Recent severe rainfall and flooding declarations underscore the operational and public safety risk of delayed action.
The opportunity
Federal grant programs including HSGP and EMPG are directly aligned with emergency preparedness and alert system investments, offering a clear funding path. A budget-approved initiative to enhance regional preparedness and an active FY planning cycle make this an immediate window for action.
IT Endpoint & Remote Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The entity operates a mature IT environment undergoing active modernization, with a FY2025 cybersecurity audit underway and an AWS security contract expiring in November 2026. Gaps in endpoint oversight and remote management create operational and compliance risk ahead of a state-mandated cybersecurity certification deadline.
The opportunity
FY2027 budget planning includes approved increases for IT licenses and cybersecurity, creating a well-timed entry point for endpoint and remote management improvements. Federal grant programs support cybersecurity and IT preparedness initiatives, and acting now aligns with audit findings and compliance deadlines.
Web & Digital Accessibility Compliance Readiness
Digital Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing web portals and mobile applications must meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards under the ADA Title II mandate by April 2026. A Digital Accessibility Roadmap initiative is underway, signaling active planning to close compliance gaps before the deadline.
The opportunity
With a formal roadmap initiative already in motion, the upcoming fiscal cycle is the right time to align resources and remediation priorities before procurement windows close. Early action reduces legal exposure, improves equitable public access, and positions the project for available state and federal funding support.
