Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
San Antonio lacks an approved Emergency Operations Plan and a dedicated mass-notification system, while facing frequent severe weather events and an active emergency management plan mandate. These gaps create compounding compliance and operational risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
A 2026 Fire Chief leadership transition creates a timely opening to advance emergency preparedness priorities, and federal grants including EMPG and HSGP provide direct funding paths. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns with budget-approved public safety initiatives and reduces exposure before the next severe weather season.
Public Safety CAD System Modernization
Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
San Antonio has budget-approved a $3M Public Safety CAD System Upgrade alongside broader Public Safety Facilities Infrastructure Improvements, signaling a coordinated modernization effort. Aging dispatch infrastructure creates operational risk for first responders and the communities they serve.
The opportunity
With $3M allocated in FY27 and a greenfield competitive landscape, this is a funded, near-term procurement ready to advance. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline acquisition, and an existing GIS ecosystem supports seamless integration for improved dispatch and response outcomes.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity & Password Management Compliance Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Active cybersecurity mandates, including password management requirements with defined deadlines and consequences, create immediate compliance risk for local government operations. Budget-approved security and cyber initiatives signal institutional readiness, but unaddressed gaps leave public systems and resident data vulnerable.
The opportunity
JAG and HSGP grant programs explicitly support cybersecurity investments, and current IT budget allocations reflect strong near-term funding capacity. Acting within the upcoming fiscal cycle aligns compliance remediation with available resources and reduces exposure before mandate deadlines take effect.
Public Website WCAG 2.1 Accessibility Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
Hollywood Park faces a hard April 26, 2028 deadline to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards for its public-facing website, with defined consequences for non-compliance. Failure to act risks excluding residents with disabilities from essential government services and exposes the municipality to legal and regulatory liability.
The opportunity
The 2028 compliance deadline creates a defined procurement window, and cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline acquisition within current budget cycles. Acting now allows sufficient time for remediation, testing, and validation before the mandate takes effect.

Discuss this project →Fire Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Hollywood Park Fire Department operates an aging fleet with significant maintenance costs and no telematics or dash-camera controls in place. The absence of driver behavior monitoring and incident documentation creates measurable safety and liability exposure for the department and the public it serves.
The opportunity
An interim Fire Chief transition in 2026 creates a timely opening to establish new operational priorities, and the department's existing GIS ecosystem supports seamless fleet data integration. Addressing this gap now aligns with broader municipal fleet modernization efforts and may be eligible for cooperative purchasing vehicles to streamline procurement.

Discuss this project →IT Infrastructure Replacement & Endpoint Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
San Antonio has budget-approved plans for large-scale IT infrastructure replacement, backed by a $166M IT budget increase and $88M Technology Transformation allocation. Without modern endpoint management, the city faces elevated cybersecurity risk, operational gaps, and compliance exposure across critical municipal systems.
The opportunity
Approved funding and an active modernization cycle create a near-term window to advance endpoint management and infrastructure resilience aligned with cybersecurity mandates. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the city to reduce risk, strengthen continuity, and maximize already-allocated public technology investment.
