Campus Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Campus Safety
High Priority
About this project
The college's current mass notification platform has unconfirmed renewal status, no public evidence of recent exercises or audits, and an unclear EOP revision timeline. TBR Guidance Letter B-100 mandates EOP compliance, and an active strategic initiative to standardize campus emergency notification signals an open evaluation window.
The opportunity
Incoming leadership and a strategic plan cycle create a natural window to reassess emergency notification capabilities before compliance gaps widen. Technology access fee increases and Title III infrastructure funding provide viable pathways to support modernization within the current budget horizon.

High Priority
About this project
The Tennessee Board of Regents has issued a systemwide RFI for endpoint device standardization with an August 2026 deadline, signaling active operational gaps in device management across institutions. The 2025–2030 strategic plan mandates a comprehensive IT-efficiency and cybersecurity initiative, elevating both compliance and continuity risk if action is delayed.
The opportunity
The August 2026 RFI deadline creates an immediate, defined window for evaluation and action. A $2.05 million Title III grant and a dedicated technology access fee increase provide identifiable funding, while TBR group purchasing contracts offer a streamlined, compliant procurement path aligned with the current fiscal cycle.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The college's 2025–2030 strategic plan explicitly calls for a comprehensive IT-efficiency and cybersecurity initiative, yet no formal compliance mandates currently enforce action. Existing cloud and virtual desktop environments present identifiable attack surfaces, elevating institutional risk for staff, students, and sensitive data.
The opportunity
A $2.05 million Title III infrastructure grant and a recent technology access fee increase signal available funding aligned to this initiative. New executive leadership and an active system-wide endpoint standardization evaluation create a near-term window to advance cybersecurity investments within the current strategic planning horizon.
Title III grant
Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The college faces documented obligations under Section 508 and WCAG 2.0, requiring accessible digital content for all students and staff. Gaps in compliance expose the institution to legal and reputational risk while limiting equitable access to academic resources.
The opportunity
The institution's 2025–2030 strategic plan and master plan both prioritize accessibility, signaling leadership commitment and budget alignment for investment beyond minimum remediation. A technology access fee increase and active Title III grant funding create a viable pathway to advance this initiative in the current fiscal cycle.
Title III grant
Discuss this project →Workforce & Technology Building Capital Replacement
IT Modernization · Higher Education Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The college has identified replacement of its Workforce and Technology Building as a high-priority capital project, creating significant downstream demand for technology refresh, networking, and IT systems modernization. New executive leadership and an active 2025–2030 strategic planning cycle elevate the urgency for aligned infrastructure decisions.
The opportunity
A capital building replacement is a natural trigger for large-scale technology investment, and active budget planning signals readiness to act. Dedicated technology funding—including a technology access fee increase and a Title III infrastructure grant—provides established pathways to advance this initiative within the current fiscal cycle.
