Emergency Management Compliance & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
This entity faces critical compliance mandates—including NIMS implementation and Hazard Mitigation Plan requirements—where non-compliance risks loss of FEMA and state funding. Recent declared emergencies from flooding and winter storms have exposed operational readiness gaps requiring immediate attention.
The opportunity
The Homeland Security Grant Program provides a near-term funding path for emergency communications and mass-notification equipment, aligning with active budget investment in public safety infrastructure. Addressing compliance and preparedness gaps now protects federal funding eligibility and strengthens community resilience ahead of the next fiscal cycle.
911 Dispatch Center Construction & Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
A $27.7M capital investment is underway to construct and modernize a new 911 dispatch center, representing a critical upgrade to public safety communications infrastructure. The project is tied to emergency management readiness goals and carries compliance obligations under NIMS and Hazard Mitigation Plan requirements, with non-compliance risking loss of FEMA and state funding.
The opportunity
Active budget allocation and an open Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) window create strong conditions for advancing communications equipment and technology procurement now. Aligning this investment with the current fiscal cycle supports compliance, strengthens emergency response readiness, and maximizes eligible funding before the window closes.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Recent declared emergencies—including flooding and severe weather—have exposed critical gaps in the entity's ability to communicate effectively during incidents. NIMS compliance and Hazard Mitigation Plan mandates create clear consequences for inaction, including potential loss of FEMA and state funding.
The opportunity
Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding explicitly covers mass-notification and emergency communications equipment, offering a defined, time-sensitive procurement path tied to the federal funding cycle. Acting within the current grant window reduces compliance risk and strengthens community-wide emergency response readiness.
County IT & Cybersecurity Infrastructure Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The county maintains active investments in endpoint management, password security, and data protection, yet ongoing procurement cycles signal gaps in unified cybersecurity coverage across departments, including public safety operations. Without a cohesive modernization strategy, the county faces elevated risk of data breaches, service disruptions, and compliance exposure.
The opportunity
With over $1.2M in annual IT and software spend already established, budget capacity exists to consolidate and strengthen cybersecurity posture within the current fiscal cycle. Aligning modernization efforts now supports operational continuity, reduces institutional risk, and positions the county to leverage cooperative procurement vehicles for cost-effective acquisition.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
New DPW vehicle acquisitions present an immediate opportunity to address the inherent operational risks of fire and EMS fleet operations. Without telematics, agencies face elevated liability exposure, limited driver safety oversight, and gaps in incident response documentation.
The opportunity
Bundling telematics adoption with active vehicle procurements streamlines acquisition and reduces implementation costs. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available, and the initiative aligns with ongoing public safety investment and upcoming fiscal planning cycles.
