Mass Notification & Emergency Management Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A documented cyber-related outage of the county's incumbent emergency notification system in November 2025 exposed a critical gap in public alerting capability. Unresolved EOP uncertainties and winter weather risk compound the urgency for a resilient, redundant communication solution.
The opportunity
Leadership awareness of the outage, an active emergency management training mandate, and over $3.6M in annual IT spend signal both urgency and budget readiness to act within the current fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles available to the county can streamline procurement and accelerate deployment timelines.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a firm April 2027 deadline to meet ADA Title II requirements, with an explicit commitment to WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. Documented gaps in both document and web content accessibility across public-facing digital properties expose the county to legal and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The April 2027 compliance deadline creates a defined, time-bound window to procure and implement remediation solutions. Acting now allows sufficient lead time for assessment, remediation, and validation while aligning with the current fiscal planning cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles available to the county can streamline procurement and reduce administrative burden.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent patrol vehicle collision and public scrutiny of deputy driving behavior have exposed critical gaps in fleet oversight. The county lacks continuous dash camera coverage, GPS telematics, harsh-event detection, and structured driver coaching—creating liability, safety, and operational risk.
The opportunity
A funded FY2027 fleet modernization initiative, a $500,000 rural law enforcement grant, and a $100,000 state grant provide a strong, multi-layered funding foundation. Acting now aligns investment with available appropriations and directly reduces public safety risk and liability exposure.

Cybersecurity Compliance · Public Safety IT
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a CJIS audit readiness deadline of March 2027 alongside expiring Tyler public-safety software maintenance in October 2026, creating compounding modernization pressure. Existing endpoint management gaps in the iPad MDM environment and a recently closed end-of-life VoIP RFP elevate operational and compliance risk for law enforcement continuity.
The opportunity
The BJA JAG program offers a direct funding path for law enforcement cybersecurity initiatives, and the county's confirmed cooperative purchasing vehicle streamlines procurement. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses overlapping deadlines, reduces audit exposure, and strengthens public safety infrastructure before critical maintenance windows close.

Discuss this project →Public Safety Software & Communications Infrastructure Replacement
Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county's public safety software maintenance contract expires October 31, 2026, and a recently closed RFP signals active replacement of an end-of-life communications system. These converging deadlines create operational and continuity risk for Sheriff's Office functions if procurement is delayed.
The opportunity
The hard October 2026 maintenance expiration creates a defined procurement window aligned with current budget planning cycles, and the county's confirmed cooperative purchasing relationship streamlines acquisition. Significant public safety grant awards and a $3.6M+ annual IT spend indicate strong funding capacity to act within this fiscal period.
