Emergency Operations Plan Compliance & Readiness Upgrade
Emergency Management · Campus Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
This campus faces significant emergency preparedness gaps—including an EOP of unknown age and approval status, no identified mass-notification system, and undisclosed audit findings—ahead of a firm Texas-mandated EOP review deadline of September 30, 2026. The required plan must also incorporate a cybersecurity annex, expanding scope and complexity for campus leadership.
The opportunity
The September 30, 2026 compliance deadline creates a near-term, non-negotiable decision window, and the approved 2026–27 budget reflects a $4.69M net surplus with strong IT spending capacity to act. Incoming leadership transitions signal openness to new initiatives, and cooperative procurement vehicles are in place to streamline acquisition.
Campus Mass Notification System Implementation
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
No mass-notification system has been identified for this campus, leaving students, staff, and families without a reliable emergency alert capability. This gap directly contributes to an emergency preparedness deficiency tied to an imminent Texas EOP compliance review deadline of September 30, 2026.
The opportunity
The September 2026 EOP review deadline creates a firm window to close this critical alerting gap before compliance is assessed. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are confirmed, enabling expedited procurement, and the campus budget reflects capacity for this investment within the current fiscal cycle.
Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The campus faces a federal deadline of April 26, 2027, requiring WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance across web and digital content. Current platforms present documented accessibility gaps, creating legal exposure and reputational risk for the institution and the students it serves.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline creates a firm procurement window within the current and next fiscal year, and an Interactive Online Learning Grant (deadline September 25, 2026) may offer a conditional funding pathway. Recent leadership transitions signal openness to prioritizing this visible compliance gap now.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The 2026–27 budget reflects a nearly $894K increase in data processing services, signaling active IT infrastructure investment with no incumbent endpoint management solution in place. The EOP cybersecurity annex requirement adds a compliance-linked urgency to improving the campus's overall cybersecurity posture.
The opportunity
Funding is already approved for the upcoming fiscal year, and recent leadership transitions create a timely opening for technology evaluation and selection. Acting now aligns endpoint modernization with the EOP cybersecurity annex mandate and positions the institution ahead of compliance deadlines.
