EOP Modernization and NIMS Compliance for District Safety
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly posted Emergency Operations Plan with documented review dates and has experienced communication failures during incidents. Michigan law MCL 380.1308b mandates biennial EOP review, and NIMS compliance is required for federal grant eligibility, creating compounding compliance and operational risk.
The opportunity
FEMA BRIC and HSGP grants provide a direct funding path for emergency communications and preparedness infrastructure, and the recently adopted FY26-27 budget signals a favorable window for new spending. Acting now aligns procurement with active grant cycles, reduces compliance exposure, and strengthens safety outcomes for students and staff.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a modern mass notification system and has experienced documented communication failures during incidents, undermining emergency response and stakeholder communication. Michigan law (MCL 380.1308b) mandates biennial EOP review, and NIMS compliance is required for grant eligibility, elevating both operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
FEMA BRIC and HSGP grant funding is directly applicable to emergency communications and alert systems, offering a strong path forward with limited local match required. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns with the recently adopted FY26–27 budget and supports EOP compliance, drill readiness, and the safety of students and staff.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has documented gaps against WCAG 2.1 standards across public-facing digital properties, creating ADA compliance exposure and legal risk. An upcoming audit within months elevates urgency for remediation of accessibility barriers affecting students, families, and community members.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY26-27 budget cycle creates a timely funding window, and the district's active web accessibility compliance commitment supports prioritized action. Addressing gaps now reduces audit findings, limits legal liability, and ensures equitable digital access for all constituents.

Discuss this project →IT & Cybersecurity Infrastructure Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The district operates a fragmented technology environment with no declared password management solution and unspecified endpoint management tooling, creating measurable security gaps. An active IT and Cybersecurity Modernization initiative confirms leadership awareness, but unresolved tooling gaps elevate risk to district data and operations.
The opportunity
With new board and administrative leadership in place as of mid-2026 and a recently adopted FY26–27 budget confirming dedicated technology spend, conditions are favorable for accelerating modernization decisions. Addressing endpoint and identity management gaps now reduces operational risk and aligns with the current budget planning cycle.
