Modernize Emergency Management & Mass Notification Systems
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department faces critical emergency preparedness gaps — including interim leadership, recurring power outages, dispatch failures, and multiple declared emergencies — while relying on a county-level notification system. NIMS mandates a formal EOP review, and current operational vulnerabilities elevate risk to residents and first responders.
The opportunity
May 2026 budget adjustments include targeted Fire Department technology allocations, and HSGP FY2026 and BRIC FY2024/2025 grant deadlines in July 2026 directly fund emergency communications and alerting systems. Acting now aligns procurement with available funding and addresses compliance and operational risk before the next declared emergency.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Content Compliance
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A recent website refresh launched without an accessibility statement, creating immediate exposure under WCAG 2.1 and ADA requirements. With a hard compliance deadline of April 24, 2026, unaddressed gaps in digital content accessibility elevate legal and reputational risk for the department and the residents it serves.
The opportunity
The active website refresh creates a natural, low-disruption window to implement accessibility remediation before the April 2026 deadline. Acting within the current budget cycle supports compliance, reduces legal exposure, and ensures equitable digital access for all constituents.

Discuss this project →Endpoint Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Endpoint Security
High Priority
About this project
The department relies on multiple disconnected endpoint management tools, creating administrative complexity and potential security gaps across managed devices. Fragmented tooling increases operational risk and strains IT staff capacity, particularly as budget cycles require defensible, consolidated technology investments.
The opportunity
The active 2026–2027 budget process presents a defined window to consolidate endpoint management before technology allocations are finalized. Existing software budget lines support this transition, and unified endpoint management can reduce overhead, improve compliance posture, and strengthen operational continuity.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Public complaints about vehicle maintenance and the absence of dash cameras or telematics systems signal an unaddressed fleet safety gap. An internal safety review confirms awareness, yet no technology adoption has occurred, leaving operational and liability risks unmitigated.
The opportunity
An active fire truck replacement budget line and ongoing FY planning create a near-term window to bundle fleet safety technology into existing procurement activity. Cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline acquisition, reduce costs, and accelerate deployment without a standalone bid process.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
While a password management solution is in place, broader cybersecurity gaps remain across server infrastructure and software systems, leaving the county exposed to operational and data security risks. Budget line items for technology and public safety tech spend signal unaddressed vulnerabilities that could impact service continuity and resident trust.
The opportunity
The active 2026–2027 budget cycle, supported by new revenue recognition and available fund balances, creates a clear window to advance cybersecurity investments before allocations are finalized. Addressing gaps now reduces operational risk, supports compliance posture, and positions the county to leverage cooperative purchasing vehicles for cost-effective procurement.
