EOC Technology Modernization for Unified Incident Response
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The current EOC infrastructure is fragmented across agencies, creating gaps in secure conferencing and multi-agency incident coordination. Public safety communications have faltered during hazardous air quality and severe weather events, elevating operational risk and NIMS/EMPG compliance exposure.
The opportunity
BRIC and HSGP grant deadlines in July 2026 provide near-term funding pathways, and cooperative purchasing vehicles can streamline acquisition within the current fiscal cycle. Unifying EOC technology now strengthens regional response readiness, supports compliance mandates, and reduces risk to residents and first responders.
Public Safety Communications & Emergency Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city faces critical gaps in public safety communications, with over-reliance on county systems creating risk of delayed or failed alerts during hazardous air quality and severe weather events. NIMS/EMPG compliance mandates require immediate attention to emergency notification infrastructure to protect residents and staff.
The opportunity
BRIC and HSGP grant deadlines in July 2026 create a defined funding window to address compliance gaps and modernize emergency notification systems. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns with budget-approved IT initiatives and reduces operational and regulatory risk to the public.
SCADA System Refresh and Cybersecurity Hardening
IT Modernization · Operational Technology Security
High Priority
About this project
Aging SCADA infrastructure presents cybersecurity and operational continuity risks for critical public systems. A budget-approved refresh initiative signals recognized gaps in operational technology that, if unaddressed, could expose essential services to disruption or compromise.
The opportunity
FY 2027 budget approval creates an immediate procurement window, and HSGP funding offers a potential grant match to offset local costs. Acting within this cycle ensures alignment with modernization goals and reduces risk to critical infrastructure operations.
Cybersecurity Posture Improvement & NCSR Achievement
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city has a strategic initiative to achieve a high NCSR score, but existing Microsoft 365 infrastructure introduces credential and identity management vulnerabilities. With IT spending up 5.3% for FY2026, unresolved gaps elevate compliance risk and expose public systems to potential disruption.
The opportunity
The NCSR target is a near-term, measurable compliance milestone driving active procurement decisions, and HSGP funding offers a viable match for eligible cybersecurity investments. Acting within the current fiscal cycle leverages an $8.4M+ IT budget and aligns with approved FY2026 spending priorities.
Cloud Infrastructure Migration and Modernization
IT Modernization · Cloud Security
High Priority
About this project
The city is actively transitioning away from on-premises infrastructure as part of a formally approved strategic initiative, creating immediate downstream needs in cloud security, identity management, and IT operations. Without addressing these gaps, the organization faces elevated cybersecurity exposure and operational continuity risk during migration.
The opportunity
With FY2026 IT budget increases already approved and procurement activity expected in the near term, funding capacity is in place to advance migration-related technology needs. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures alignment with strategic timelines and reduces risk during the transition period.
Web Accessibility & ADA Digital Compliance Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The city faces WCAG 2.1 compliance gaps across public-facing websites and digital portals, creating legal exposure and barriers to resident access. An approved $827K ADA allocation confirms organizational urgency, but remediation must advance to close accessibility risk.
The opportunity
Dedicated funding is already in place, and FY 2027 budget timelines and the Neighborhood Investment Plan create clear urgency to act within the current cycle. Executing now reduces legal liability, advances digital equity, and ensures public services are accessible to all residents.
