Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office faces documented emergency preparedness gaps—including an outdated Basic Plan, unvalidated mass notification procedures, and incident communication challenges—while NIMS/ICS compliance mandates and biennial exercise requirements remain unmet. Planned facilities such as a Swiftwater Training Facility and S.H.I.E.L.D. Center further underscore the urgency of a modernized EOP framework.
The opportunity
A federal grant of $1.031M for Mobile Command Unit equipment has been approved or is pending, and the FY2027 budget adoption in September 2026 creates a near-term decision window. Addressing preparedness gaps now leverages available federal funding, reduces compliance and operational risk, and strengthens public safety outcomes for the communities served.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office is pursuing critical technology upgrades to its Mobile Command Unit as part of a broader emergency management and field operations strategy. Documented gaps in incident communication, outdated emergency planning, and unvalidated mass notification procedures elevate operational and public safety risk during active deployments.
The opportunity
A $1.031M federal grant has been approved for application, with the FY2027 budget adoption deadline of September 17, 2026 creating an immediate procurement window. Acting now ensures funding is captured, field readiness is strengthened, and emergency response capabilities align with NIMS/ICS compliance requirements.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office operates a fragmented mass notification environment across multiple platforms, leaving notification procedures unvalidated and communication unreliable during incidents. This split ecosystem creates measurable operational risk and compliance exposure under emergency management mandates, including an outdated Basic Plan with documented gaps.
The opportunity
Emergency preparedness grant conditions tied to EOP improvements reinforce the urgency for validated notification capabilities, and the FY2027 budget adoption window creates a near-term decision point. Consolidating to a unified notification capability reduces incident response risk, supports compliance, and aligns with available federal funding pathways.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Deputy Driver Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office has experienced multiple recent fleet-involved accidents resulting in deputy injuries and heightened public scrutiny. The current fleet management platform lacks sufficient capabilities for driver behavior monitoring and telematics data needed to support accident prevention and legal defensibility.
The opportunity
Strategic initiatives including the D.R.I.V.E. Center and Patrol District relocations reinforce the urgency for fleet technology investment, with COPS TEP grant funding potentially applicable. Acting within the current budget cycle aligns with FY2027 planning and available cooperative procurement vehicles.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Certification & Identity Management Remediation
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office has unresolved gaps in its 2026 cybersecurity certification, with documented deficiencies in password management and audit trail integrity. These gaps elevate operational and compliance risk during an active IT modernization period following new technology leadership in March 2026.
The opportunity
The JAG program is currently open and directly supports cybersecurity and technology improvement investments, with the FY2027 budget adoption deadline of September 17, 2026 creating an immediate decision window. Acting now aligns remediation efforts with available funding and incoming leadership priorities.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & ADA Title II Compliance Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office has an active website accessibility initiative with identified gaps against WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, required under ADA Title II. Unresolved gaps carry legal and reputational risk, and the 2027 federal compliance deadline creates a firm remediation timeline.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget adoption window in September 2026 provides a near-term funding alignment point to advance this project before the compliance deadline. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces legal exposure and ensures equitable public access to digital services.
