Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office faces critical emergency preparedness gaps — including a vacant Emergency Management Coordinator position, no unified mass-notification platform, and communication failures during a recent water emergency — while annual EOP review and NIMS adoption remain mandated compliance obligations.
The opportunity
Active grant pursuits (LEPC, Rural Ambulance, AFG) and an existing $24K annual public safety tech commitment create a viable funding path; acting within the next 90 days aligns with open grant windows and a leadership transition that presents a timely opportunity to unify dispatch, warning, and notification functions.
Cybersecurity & Password Security Compliance Modernization
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Active mandates require annual cybersecurity and password security compliance, yet current IT infrastructure gaps leave the organization exposed to credential-based threats and audit risk. Existing managed services provide a foundation, but unmet compliance requirements elevate operational and regulatory risk for staff and the public served.
The opportunity
A JAG grant is actively being pursued to fund cybersecurity solutions, and existing IT spend signals budget capacity to support compliance initiatives within the current fiscal cycle. Addressing these mandates now reduces audit exposure, strengthens data protection, and aligns with ongoing IT modernization priorities.
ADA Digital Compliance & Web Accessibility Expansion
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Office has committed to WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards and has already approved website add-on services for ADA compliance, with existing document and accessibility tooling in place. This is an expansion of active compliance efforts, not a new initiative, reducing implementation risk while addressing ongoing public-access obligations.
The opportunity
A dedicated budget line of $3,340 has been identified for website and accessibility services, with a proposed increase in IT managed services spend signaling near-term procurement readiness. Acting within the current fiscal cycle extends existing compliance infrastructure and supports equitable public access to government digital services.
Fleet Safety Monitoring & Driver Risk Reduction
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent fleet accident with a documented insurance claim signals gaps in driver oversight and vehicle safety monitoring. Without structured telematics and fleet management controls, the agency faces continued liability exposure and operational risk to staff and the public.
The opportunity
The incident creates immediate justification for fleet safety investment, and cooperative procurement vehicles may offer an expedited, cost-effective path to implementation within the current fiscal cycle. Proactive action reduces liability, supports staff safety, and demonstrates responsible stewardship of public assets.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
An existing third-party IT managed services arrangement supporting productivity platforms is under review as active cybersecurity and digital modernization initiatives expand departmental needs. Despite an overall decreasing budget, a proposed increase in managed services spend signals growing reliance on external IT support amid unmet compliance and operational demands.
The opportunity
A proposed budget increase for managed services, combined with active cybersecurity mandates and no incumbent competition in adjacent solution areas, creates a timely window to consolidate and strengthen IT service delivery. Cooperative procurement vehicles and active grant pursuits may offset costs and accelerate adoption within the current fiscal cycle.
