Emergency Management Program & EOP Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department faces a critical preparedness gap driven by severely reduced EMPG funding for the Emergency Management Coordinator position and an absence of current EOP review and exercises. NIMS compliance is a standing mandate, and recent state emergency declarations underscore the operational and legal risk of an undocumented, under-resourced emergency management program.
The opportunity
Federal grant programs including BRIC and HSGP are actively funding emergency communications and preparedness initiatives, and dedicated local fire millage provides a clear co-investment path. Addressing this gap now aligns with compliance mandates, reduces liability exposure, and positions the jurisdiction to protect residents before the next declared emergency.
Emergency Communications & Mass Notification Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Local emergency alerting and communications infrastructure has identified gaps that leave residents without reliable, jurisdiction-level mass notification coverage. Compliance mandates including NIMS requirements and overdue EOP review cycles elevate both operational and regulatory risk for the community.
The opportunity
Named federal grant programs explicitly fund emergency communications and alert system upgrades, creating a direct funding path with limited local match requirements. Acting within the current grant cycle addresses compliance gaps, strengthens community preparedness, and aligns with active state emergency declarations supporting prioritization of these investments.
IT and Cybersecurity Modernization for Compliance and Data Integrity
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The department has experienced a prior data breach, relies on consumer-grade email for official communications, and faces W2 reporting system deficiencies that create FLSA overtime compliance risk. These gaps represent compounding cybersecurity and data integrity vulnerabilities requiring system-level remediation.
The opportunity
An active software replacement procurement cycle and a pressing W2 reporting compliance deadline create immediate urgency for action within the current fiscal window. Addressing these risks now protects public data, ensures regulatory compliance, and aligns with available co-op procurement pathways to streamline purchasing.

IT Modernization · Financial Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The existing records and financial management platform is being replaced through an active RFP process after the current system was found unable to meet W2 reporting mandates under recent federal legislation. This compliance gap creates immediate operational and legal risk for the entity's finance and HR functions.
The opportunity
An active procurement process and a firm compliance deadline create a narrow window to select and implement a capable replacement system before reporting obligations come due. This project aligns with current IT modernization priorities and may be eligible for cooperative purchasing vehicles to streamline acquisition and reduce costs.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department lacks deployed telematics and dashcam solutions while operating routes through rural roadway hazard zones, creating unmitigated liability and safety exposure. An internal safety review for emergency vehicle routing has been initiated, but no mitigation technology is currently in place.
The opportunity
Road millage provides a local funding signal, and cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline and accelerate procurement within the current fiscal cycle. Acting now reduces liability risk proactively and improves safety outcomes for staff and the public before incidents occur.
