Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A recent wildfire exposed critical gaps in coordination, communication, and mass notification, while the department's Emergency Operations Plan remains overdue. Fragmented systems and active public scrutiny compound NIMS compliance risk and threaten operational continuity for residents and responders.
The opportunity
An approved budget window, increased federal and state funding, and a new departmental leadership appointment create immediate conditions for action. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure, restores public confidence, and aligns with NG9-1-1 readiness and resilience program priorities.

Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital portals have identified gaps against WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, with a regulatory compliance deadline of April 2027. Failure to remediate creates legal exposure and restricts equitable public access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline establishes a defined procurement and remediation window, and the active budget cycle supports near-term action. Cooperative purchasing agreements provide a streamlined path to procurement, and a phased approach initiated now reduces both compliance risk and cost pressure as the deadline approaches.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
An annual cybersecurity awareness training mandate with an August 31 deadline creates recurring compliance pressure, while alignment with NIST and CISA frameworks signals a broader posture initiative. Gaps in credential management and IT infrastructure expose the department to operational and security risk.
The opportunity
The August 31 mandate establishes a predictable procurement window, and the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program may fund eligible technology improvements. Acting within the current fiscal cycle strengthens compliance posture and supports responsible stewardship of the department's $14M+ annual IT investment.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Recent apparatus damage during a landfill fire incident and ongoing equipment defect litigation expose significant fleet safety and liability risks. The department's active fleet modernization plan creates urgency to implement a tracking and telematics solution that reduces incidents and supports operational accountability.
The opportunity
An identified fleet modernization initiative and active procurement relationships through cooperative purchasing networks provide a streamlined path to act within the current budget cycle. Addressing fleet safety now reduces litigation exposure, improves apparatus readiness, and aligns with increased Fire/Rescue funding already approved.

Discuss this project →Modernize IT Endpoint Management & Infrastructure
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Designated budget transfers for Information Systems equipment and software signal a planned infrastructure investment, yet a layered IT environment with multiple external providers creates gaps in centralized endpoint visibility and management. Without unified oversight, operational continuity, data integrity, and cybersecurity compliance remain at risk.
The opportunity
An approved budget and active procurement window create a near-term opportunity to address infrastructure gaps, with the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program offering a potential funding pathway for qualifying technology improvements. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces operational risk and strengthens compliance posture across departments.
