Emergency Operations Plan Development and Lifecycle Management
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Metamora Township lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, creating significant preparedness gaps and compliance risk tied to NIMS implementation and EOP review mandates required for funding eligibility. Limited evidence of township-level exercises further elevates operational and community safety risk.
The opportunity
Active county-level hazard mitigation efforts and the Homeland Security Grant Program create a near-term funding window for EOP development and emergency management capabilities. Formalizing a plan now ensures compliance, strengthens grant eligibility, and aligns with the current regional preparedness momentum.
Mass Notification System Consolidation & Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Following the non-renewal of a legacy notification platform, the entity is operating fragmented systems—Nixle alongside a newly adopted alerts platform—creating reliability gaps and operational inefficiencies in resident and staff communications during incidents. Inconsistent notification infrastructure elevates risk during emergencies and conflicts with NIMS compliance requirements tied to grant eligibility.
The opportunity
Active platform transitions signal live decision-making, making this an ideal moment to consolidate into a unified, reliable notification system. Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding is eligible for communications equipment, reducing local fiscal burden. Addressing consolidation now strengthens incident response, supports NIMS compliance, and aligns with the current grant cycle.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The entity has identified WCAG 2.1 and ADA compliance gaps across its public-facing web presence, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable access to government services. Remediation is a confirmed mandate, not a discretionary initiative, requiring structured action within a defined timeline.
The opportunity
Compliance timelines are non-deferrable, and the low procurement threshold supports modular, phased engagements that fit within current budget constraints. Addressing gaps now reduces legal risk, improves public access, and positions the entity ahead of audit or enforcement action.
Endpoint Management & Cybersecurity Capability Expansion
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The entity has an active endpoint management platform relationship and an ongoing Microsoft 365 migration, with identified gaps in password and credential management. These unaddressed cybersecurity vulnerabilities elevate operational and compliance risk across public-facing systems and staff infrastructure.
The opportunity
Homeland Security Grant Program funding explicitly supports IT and cybersecurity equipment purchases, providing a clear, low-barrier funding path. Acting within the current grant cycle and alongside the M365 migration strengthens security posture and maximizes return on existing modernization investments.
