Mass Notification System Migration & Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's current mass-notification system has been announced for discontinuation, creating an immediate need to migrate to a modern platform. Without action, reliable emergency communications to residents and staff are at risk, with Michigan EOP and NIMS compliance obligations adding further urgency.
The opportunity
Active procurement is underway, and an upcoming 911 millage renewal—if approved—provides a direct funding path for emergency communications infrastructure. Aligning this project with the current budget cycle and available grant programs such as HSGP and BRIC can accelerate procurement while minimizing local match requirements.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Huron County faces significant emergency preparedness gaps, including the absence of a public-facing Emergency Operations Plan, no documented exercise history, and potential grant compliance risks. Meeting Michigan EOP standards, NIMS, and Hazard Mitigation Plan requirements is non-discretionary, and unresolved gaps elevate operational and compliance risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
An ARPA-funded EMS and emergency systems upgrade already underway signals active budget commitment and strategic alignment. Relevant grant programs—including hazard mitigation and homeland security funding—support this initiative, and an upcoming 911 millage renewal may provide additional resources. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses compliance mandates, closes preparedness gaps, and strengthens community resilience.
Fleet Telematics & Driver Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Operational Risk Management
High Priority
About this project
The county currently lacks dash-cam and telematics capabilities across its fleet, creating a measurable gap in driver behavior monitoring and preventative risk control. Leadership has identified this absence as a moderate but clear operational safety risk with direct liability implications for the county.
The opportunity
Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement and reduce administrative burden, supporting timely action within the current fiscal cycle. Addressing this gap now strengthens public asset stewardship, reduces liability exposure, and positions the county to leverage eligible funding pathways.

Discuss this project →Endpoint & Identity Security Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks unified endpoint management and credential security controls, creating cybersecurity vulnerabilities and operational inefficiencies across county systems. Without centralized visibility and access governance, sensitive data and public services face elevated risk of breach or disruption.
The opportunity
Consolidating endpoint and identity management aligns with the current IT infrastructure investment cycle and may be procured efficiently through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Acting within the upcoming fiscal cycle supports budget justification and reduces compounding security risk across county operations.
