Credential Security & CJIS Compliance for Law Enforcement
Cybersecurity · Law Enforcement Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office faces active Texas cybersecurity compliance obligations and CJIS audit standards with no agency-specific password vault in place, creating direct regulatory exposure. This gap puts sensitive law enforcement data at risk and elevates the county's audit liability under current state mandates.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle presents a near-term decision window, and FY 2026 HSGP grant funding may offset implementation costs for qualifying cybersecurity controls. Acting now closes a documented compliance gap before audit findings escalate and while funding pathways remain accessible.

Discuss this project →Endpoint & IT Infrastructure Management
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county currently relies on a managed IT services provider without a confirmed endpoint management platform in place, creating visibility and control gaps across county devices. With active Texas cybersecurity compliance obligations and CJIS audit standards in effect, the absence of standardized endpoint oversight elevates operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle includes existing software and SaaS allocations, supporting a near-term procurement decision. FY 2026 HSGP funding may apply to cybersecurity-adjacent infrastructure, and cooperative purchasing vehicles can streamline acquisition within informal quote thresholds.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces compounding emergency preparedness gaps: an unverified Emergency Operations Plan, a recent Emergency Management Coordinator vacancy, and a basic text-alert system with no confirmed integrated EOC platform. Active compliance mandates with upcoming deadlines elevate operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
FY 2026 HSGP and EMPG grant programs explicitly align with emergency management solutions and represent confirmed funding pathways available in the current budget cycle. Acting now addresses compliance deadlines, fills the leadership transition gap, and strengthens coordinated response capacity for residents and staff.

Discuss this project →Sheriff Fleet Telematics & Driver Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office lacks a unified telematics and driver behavior monitoring platform, creating visibility gaps across the fleet despite existing LPR and in-car video deployments. Without centralized fleet monitoring, the agency faces elevated operational risk, limited accountability, and no consolidated evidence management capability.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle includes dedicated Sheriff fleet and vehicle capital maintenance allocations, creating a clear near-term funding window. Cooperative purchasing vehicles can streamline procurement, and the current public safety funding environment supports advancing this initiative within the fiscal year.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Modernization
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county has identified a recognized gap in WCAG 2.1 AA compliance across its public-facing digital properties, creating equity and legal risk for residents who rely on accessible government services. This initiative is in active planning, with digital compliance spending already signaled within the current budget cycle.
The opportunity
The active FY 2026–2027 budget cycle and existing software/SaaS allocations create a near-term decision window to advance this compliance commitment. Addressing the gap now reduces legal exposure, improves equitable public access, and positions the county ahead of longer-term accessibility mandates.
