Mass Notification & Crisis Communication Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
MHMR of Tarrant County has no dedicated mass-notification platform, leaving critical gaps in crisis communication, delayed emergency response, and regional psychiatric crisis coordination. These preparedness deficiencies elevate operational and public safety risk for vulnerable populations served across the region.
The opportunity
A budget-approved psychiatric emergency response initiative and over $260K in identified emergency management tech spend signal near-term procurement readiness. Acting within the current fiscal cycle enables streamlined procurement through existing cooperative contract vehicles and directly advances regional crisis-response outcomes.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
MHMR of Tarrant County faces active HIPAA compliance mandates and Texas breach reporting requirements, with identified gaps in endpoint management, identity protection, and security-awareness tools across a distributed workforce. Without unified endpoint oversight and credential controls, the organization carries elevated risk of data exposure affecting vulnerable behavioral health populations.
The opportunity
A $1.9M FY2026 budget allocation is already approved for IT and cybersecurity modernization, and a grant opportunity with an October 2026 deadline provides an additional funding path. Acting within this fiscal window ensures compliance continuity, reduces breach risk, and protects sensitive client data for those who depend on public behavioral health services.

Web Accessibility · ADA & Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
MHMR of Tarrant County faces a firm April 26, 2027 deadline to achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance, and its current accessibility plugin leaves documented gaps in document and portal accessibility. These gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable access to behavioral health services for residents who depend on them.
The opportunity
The defined 2027 compliance deadline and active FY2026 technology budget create a near-term procurement window to remediate gaps before legal and audit risk escalates. Texas DIR cooperative contracts are available to streamline procurement and accelerate implementation within the current fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
MHMR operates a multi-vehicle fleet without dash cameras or telematics, creating gaps in driver safety, operational visibility, and accountability. Mileage tracking software expires December 31, 2026, and a budget-approved initiative to lease 56 vehicles makes addressing these gaps operationally urgent.
The opportunity
Two grant opportunities with September 2026 deadlines offer potential funding paths, and the fleet renewal initiative is already budget-approved, reducing procurement risk. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns procurement with the software expiration deadline and supports continuity of service delivery.
