Cybersecurity Compliance & Credential Security Remediation
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
TJJD faces a hard TAC 202 remediation deadline of August 31, 2026, with 85 open audit recommendations—including active information security findings—compounded by legacy applications and a fragmented IT ecosystem. Unresolved gaps elevate operational, legal, and data security risk across the agency.
The opportunity
A $338K unexpended cybersecurity budget and alignment with the BJA FY 2026 Justice Assistance Grant create a funded, time-sensitive path to remediation. Acting before the August 2026 deadline reduces audit exposure and supports procurement through established cooperative contract vehicles.

Discuss this project →Legacy IT Modernization and Endpoint Management Refresh
IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
TJJD has identified 21 legacy applications creating communication silos, with $1.6M allocated for IT refresh and $4.5M for application modernization. Fragmented endpoint management increases operational risk and complicates compliance with active state information security remediation requirements.
The opportunity
Budget is already allocated and modernization planning is underway, making this an actionable window before fiscal commitments close. DIR cooperative contracts offer a streamlined procurement path, and the BJA JAG program may provide supplemental funding for eligible technology and endpoint security improvements.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
TJJD operates 171 aging vehicles with no telematics or vehicle-specific video capabilities, while carrying self-retained liability exposure. A funded $6.3M vehicle refresh is underway, but the absence of integrated safety and tracking tools leaves significant operational and liability gaps unaddressed.
The opportunity
The active vehicle refresh creates a natural, cost-efficient integration point for telematics adoption within an already-funded initiative. Acting now reduces self-retained liability risk, improves fleet accountability, and aligns with the current budget cycle before procurement windows close.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
TJJD's digital properties have not been confirmed compliant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable access ahead of a defined April 2027 compliance deadline. Unresolved gaps risk civil rights liability and limit access to agency services for individuals with disabilities.
The opportunity
A $4.5M application modernization budget creates a timely opportunity to bundle accessibility remediation with broader digital transformation efforts, improving cost efficiency and mission alignment. Acting within the current fiscal planning cycle allows the agency to meet the 2027 deadline while reducing legal risk and expanding equitable service delivery.

Discuss this project →Emergency Operations Plan Development & Unified Alerting
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
TJJD lacks an agency-wide Emergency Operations Plan and relied on email during a recent statewide lockdown, exposing critical communication gaps. Twenty-one legacy applications create coordination silos that undermine staff safety, incident response, and operational continuity across the agency.
The opportunity
With $2M allocated specifically for emergency management and public safety technology, budget is in place to act within the current fiscal cycle. Addressing this greenfield gap now reduces operational and safety risk while aligning with state emergency preparedness standards and available public safety funding pathways.

Discuss this project →Body Camera & Security Contract Renewal
Public Safety Technology · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Existing body camera and cybersecurity contracts expire in mid-to-late 2027, and the current technology environment remains fragmented with no confirmed endpoint or security management solution in place. Open audit findings and unresolved information security recommendations elevate operational and compliance risk ahead of these deadlines.
The opportunity
Contract expiration windows in 2027 create a defined re-evaluation period, and DIR cooperative contracts support streamlined procurement with reduced administrative burden. Federal justice assistance funding may offset costs, making this fiscal cycle the right time to consolidate and modernize public safety technology.
