Public Safety Infrastructure Modernization & CAD/RMS Replacement
Public Safety Technology · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
The city has budget-approved initiatives spanning CAD/RMS replacement, Fire Station Alerting, Real Time Crime Center, and 911/EOC planning, yet fragmented emergency communication systems create operational gaps and coordination risk. With $10M+ annually allocated to public safety technology, the scale of modernization required demands cohesive procurement planning and infrastructure alignment.
The opportunity
Active procurement planning, approved budgets, and aligned federal grant programs—including EMPG and NGWS—create a near-term funding window for consolidating and modernizing public safety systems. Leadership transitions in emergency management signal organizational readiness to advance these initiatives within the current fiscal cycle.
Consolidate Emergency Mass Notification Systems
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city currently operates multiple fragmented mass notification systems simultaneously, creating operational inefficiency and dangerous communication gaps during emergencies. This lack of unified alerting undermines interoperability, strains staff, and elevates risk to public safety during critical incidents.
The opportunity
Active federal grant funding through EMPG explicitly supports public-alert systems and interoperable communications, providing a direct funding path. Consolidating now reduces operational redundancy, strengthens emergency response outcomes, and aligns with the current budget cycle and ongoing emergency management mandates.
Web & Document Accessibility Compliance Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a federally mandated deadline to achieve WCAG 2.1 AA compliance by April 2027, with PDF content specifically identified as requiring remediation. This budget-approved initiative carries executive prioritization, and failure to act risks legal exposure and inequitable access to public services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline creates a firm, non-negotiable compliance timeline, making early procurement critical to allow adequate remediation and testing cycles. Existing cooperative purchasing agreements and an active enterprise licensing pathway support streamlined, fiscally responsible procurement within the current planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Infrastructure Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively investing in cybersecurity modernization, with identified gaps across network monitoring, SIEM capabilities, next-generation firewall infrastructure, and privileged access management. A newly appointed CISO signals leadership-driven urgency to address these vulnerabilities and reduce operational and compliance risk across city systems.
The opportunity
Active budget planning and procurement cycles, combined with new security leadership, create an immediate window to advance modernization aligned with current fiscal priorities. Federal grant programs support eligible cybersecurity initiatives, and cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline procurement for cost-effective, timely implementation.
Fleet Electrification and Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Asset Optimization
High Priority
About this project
The city has active fleet electrification and GPS/telematics initiatives underway, supported by existing asset management infrastructure. Current capability gaps — rather than active incidents — are the primary driver, presenting a strategic window to modernize before operational demands increase.
The opportunity
Fleet electrification trends in municipal government create a near-term alignment for telematics expansion, and existing cooperative purchasing vehicles can streamline procurement. Advancing this initiative during active budget planning cycles positions the city to maximize asset visibility and long-term cost efficiency.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Dallas is undertaking a foundational rebuild of its emergency response command infrastructure, including a new 911 center and EOC, as a budget-approved strategic priority. Fragmented mass notification systems and a leadership reorganization in the Office of Emergency Management and Crisis Response elevate operational risk and underscore the urgency of unified, resilient command capabilities.
The opportunity
Active federal grant programs — including EMPG and NGWS — explicitly support public-alert systems, interoperable communications, and EOC modernization, providing a clear funding path. With executive sponsorship in place and budget already approved, this planning window is the critical moment to align procurement, consolidate systems, and advance public safety outcomes.
