Password & Credential Management Renewal and Expansion
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Existing password management contracts are expiring in late 2026, creating an immediate renewal and potential expansion decision point. State cybersecurity compliance mandates require annual training by August 2026 and ongoing password governance, elevating risk if action is delayed.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget hearing in September 2026 and a concurrent federal grant window with a public-safety cybersecurity nexus create a narrow, time-sensitive funding alignment. Acting now ensures compliance continuity, reduces credential-based breach risk, and positions the entity to leverage available supplemental funding.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The entity relies on a legacy endpoint management platform and faces multiple expiring network security contracts by late 2026, creating compounding operational and cybersecurity risk. Mandatory annual cybersecurity training deadlines and password governance requirements add compliance urgency, while aging infrastructure leaves public systems and data increasingly exposed.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget hearing in September 2026 is an immediate planning window, supported by $2.3M in proposed countywide IT and security capital funding. A JAG grant deadline in October 2026 offers a near-term funding catalyst for modernization efforts with a public-safety nexus, making this an optimal moment to act.

Fleet Safety · Risk & Liability Management
High Priority
About this project
A 45% spike in auto liability and property insurance premiums—driven by poor loss ratios and multiple documented vehicle incidents—signals urgent fleet safety gaps. ARFF vehicle compliance requirements and a worker fatality prompting an outside safety audit further elevate operational and liability risk.
The opportunity
Leadership's consideration of an outside safety audit creates a near-term decision window, and state fleet modernization funding signals available pathways to offset costs. Acting within the current fiscal cycle can reduce insurance exposure, strengthen ARFF compliance, and improve driver safety outcomes.

Discuss this project →Emergency Management & Mass Notification Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City of Longview's emergency notification ecosystem relies on multiple fragmented platforms, creating operational inefficiency and response risk. Airport Emergency Plan review requirements and NIMS compliance mandates are active, and the city's overall EOP status and mass notification readiness lack public documentation.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes allocations for emergency services, and active homeland security grant applications signal available funding pathways. Consolidating notification systems now reduces compliance exposure, strengthens public safety outcomes, and aligns with the city's demonstrated focus on public safety technology investment.
FAA Airport Improvement Program
Discuss this project →Airport Website ADA & Digital Accessibility Compliance
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Jack Brooks Regional Airport's public-facing website does not currently meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable access to digital services for travelers and residents. The April 26, 2027 federal compliance deadline is fixed and regulatory, making remediation a high-urgency operational priority.
The opportunity
The defined April 2027 deadline creates a clear project window that must be scoped and funded well ahead of implementation. With a substantial IT budget already in place and FY 2026–27 budget deliberations underway, this is the optimal cycle to initiate remediation and reduce compliance and legal risk.

Public Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
A state mandate has driven approval of a Next-Generation 911 system, requiring the entity to modernize its public safety communications infrastructure. This non-discretionary obligation carries both compliance urgency and operational risk if implementation is delayed.
The opportunity
Alignment with the FY 2026–2027 budget hearing in September 2026 creates a near-term decision window to advance this mandated investment. Acting now ensures compliance, strengthens emergency response outcomes, and positions the entity to leverage available public safety funding pathways.
