Fleet Safety and Video Evidence Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A serious fleet-involved accident with critical injury, rising liability insurance costs, and disputed video evidence in active litigation have exposed significant gaps in fleet monitoring and documentation. Without adequate systems in place, the agency faces compounding legal, financial, and reputational risk.
The opportunity
Active solicitations close in July/August 2026, and the adopted FY2026 budget includes explicit public safety equipment allocations—creating an immediate procurement window. Cooperative purchasing pathways and available federal grant funding can reduce local cost burden while advancing fleet safety and accountability outcomes.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The agency's Emergency Operations Plan is approximately 8 years old—double the standard 4-year review cycle—with undocumented mass-notification validation, absent public After Action Review findings, and unmet NIMS implementation and AAR policy adoption mandates. These gaps elevate operational, legal, and compliance risk for staff and the communities they serve.
The opportunity
Active solicitations for emergency management services close in July/August 2026, aligning with FY2026 budget availability and a recommended FY2027–2029 plan that increases public safety spending. HSGP funding provides an eligible pathway with limited local match, making near-term action both fiscally responsible and mission-critical.
Mass Notification System Validation and Upgrade
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's public mass-notification system lacks documented validation, creating measurable gaps in alerting capability and NIMS compliance. The current platform is identified as aging or insufficient, elevating operational risk to residents during emergencies and exposing the agency to compliance findings.
The opportunity
Emergency management solicitations closing in mid-2026 and available HSGP funding create a near-term window to address this gap within the current budget cycle. Acting now supports compliance with EOP review mandates, strengthens public alerting readiness, and aligns with adopted FY2026 public safety spending priorities.
Endpoint & IT Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity & Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
A fragmented endpoint management environment has been identified, with no unified solution currently in place across the agency. This "split ecosystem" creates operational risk, limits IT visibility, and runs counter to the agency's active initiative to consolidate and modernize IT and cybersecurity operations.
The opportunity
The recently adopted FY2026 budget, active IT solicitations closing mid-2026, and upcoming contract expirations create an immediate procurement window. Leadership transitions signal openness to re-evaluating existing systems, and cooperative purchasing agreements may streamline acquisition with reduced administrative burden.
FY2026 COPS TEP
Discuss this project →Closing the Credential Security Gap with MFA-Integrated Password Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An existing compliance mandate requires multi-factor authentication, and identity management is partially addressed, but a split ecosystem leaves password management unresolved — creating a measurable credential security gap. Without a unified approach, staff credentials remain a vulnerability that elevates risk of unauthorized access and potential data breach.
The opportunity
The active FY2026 budget cycle and an IT & Cybersecurity Modernization initiative create a near-term window to close this gap with minimal procurement friction. Addressing credential security now supports compliance posture, reduces operational risk, and may align with available federal cybersecurity funding pathways.
