Formalize Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Protocols
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Crawford Fire Department lacks a documented Emergency Operations Plan, has unresolved mass notification gaps, and unaddressed after-action findings from recent flooding. TDEM planning standards and NIMS compliance mandates create urgent requirements to formalize preparedness protocols before the next incident cycle.
The opportunity
Allocated grant funding—including a Bomb Squad award and American Rescue Plan dollars—alongside a pending HSGP award and $137K in annual EM/Public Safety tech spend signal strong budget readiness. Acting now closes critical compliance gaps, strengthens community resilience, and positions the department to capture additional emergency preparedness funding.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The entity's mass notification capability is undocumented and flagged as a critical gap in emergency preparedness, limiting reliable public communication during incidents. This exposes the jurisdiction to operational and compliance risk under NIMS and TDEM planning standards.
The opportunity
Active grant windows—including HSGP and RVFDAP—directly support emergency communication investments, and a pending HSGP award signals established eligibility. Addressing this gap now, alongside EOP development, strengthens compliance posture and protects residents during time-sensitive incidents.

Discuss this project →Endpoint Security Modernization Before Contract Expiration
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county's current endpoint security platform is approaching contract expiration within 18 months, creating both a compliance risk and a continuity gap during an active IT modernization effort. Ongoing ERP implementation challenges and planned infrastructure upgrades signal a critical window to consolidate and strengthen the security posture.
The opportunity
FY27 IT budget shifts and an expiring software contract create a near-term procurement window aligned with cooperative purchasing vehicles, reducing administrative burden. Acting now ensures uninterrupted endpoint protection, supports broader modernization goals, and positions the county to steward public technology funds effectively.

Discuss this project →Privileged Access & Credential Security Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county's existing security awareness training investment signals a foundation for layered security, but gaps in privileged access and credential management leave critical systems exposed. Active cybersecurity mandates and a high annual IT spend underscore the operational and compliance risk of leaving these controls unaddressed.
The opportunity
A shift in FY27 IT spending and upcoming software contract expirations create a timely window to close credential security gaps before budget cycles close. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and the investment aligns with existing cybersecurity compliance obligations.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & In-Vehicle Video Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Works Technology
High Priority
About this project
Recurring vehicle accidents and rising repair costs have exposed gaps in the county's fleet safety program. Existing investment in in-vehicle video systems signals readiness to expand capabilities, but inconsistent coverage leaves liability and operational risk unaddressed.
The opportunity
Active budget pathways and cooperative procurement vehicles can reduce acquisition timelines and local cost burden. Strengthening fleet safety technology now supports driver accountability, reduces incident-related costs, and aligns with the county's current infrastructure investment cycle.
