Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
ADA Compliance · Digital Modernization
High Priority
About this project
CPS Energy faces a mandatory WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2027, under ADA Title II, with identified gaps across public-facing web properties. Unresolved accessibility barriers expose the utility to legal and regulatory risk while limiting equitable digital access for ratepayers and the public.
The opportunity
FY2027 capital budget funding is already designated for the ADA program and website redesign, reducing procurement friction ahead of the hard regulatory deadline. Acting within the current planning cycle ensures compliance, supports digital equity, and positions the organization ahead of a concurrent IT services contract expiration in late 2027.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
CPS Energy has FY2027 budget commitments targeting identity and access management alongside cloud, endpoint, and disaster recovery infrastructure modernization. With a compliance urgency score of 5, critical cybersecurity mandates are active, and gaps in these areas elevate operational and continuity risk for the utility and the communities it serves.
The opportunity
Approved FY2027 capital allocations and an available DOE grant for municipal utility cybersecurity provide dual, near-term funding pathways. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the organization to close compliance gaps, reduce infrastructure risk, and lock in long-term security architecture before contracts are finalized.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
CPS Energy has documented delivery limitations in its current alert program, significant severe-weather exposure, and no public evidence of formal emergency management exercises or HSEEP-style drills. Texas EOP annual filing requirements impose recurring compliance obligations, elevating both operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
Recent severe weather incidents and active compliance deadlines create immediate urgency to modernize emergency alerting and preparedness programs. This initiative is budget-approved and strategically prioritized, positioning the organization to act within the current fiscal cycle to reduce risk and strengthen community resilience.

Fleet Management · Utility Operations
High Priority
About this project
CPS Energy operates a heavy utility vehicle fleet with limited real-time visibility, unverified dash-camera coverage, and gaps in telematics integration with existing field service and asset management platforms. These gaps create operational risk, unresolved fleet claims exposure, and reduced accountability across field operations.
The opportunity
A dedicated vehicle tracking allocation is included in the FY2027 capital budget, signaling approved intent and active planning momentum. Addressing integration gaps now supports fleet optimization, improves field accountability, and positions the initiative for timely execution within the current budget cycle.

IT Modernization · Cloud & Disaster Recovery
High Priority
About this project
A major IT transformation services contract expires November 15, 2027, triggering an immediate re-procurement for cloud, infrastructure, and disaster recovery services. With a $166.2M Enterprise IT capital budget and a $50M funding gap, leadership transitions amplify the urgency to evaluate modernized, resilient infrastructure approaches.
The opportunity
The contract expiration deadline creates a defined, time-sensitive procurement window aligned with the current fiscal cycle, while incoming interim leadership increases organizational openness to modernized solutions. DOE grant funding available for municipal utility cybersecurity provides an additional pathway to offset capital costs.
