Emergency Operations Plan Development for Volunteer Fire Departments
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department's EOP status is unconfirmed, creating critical gaps in emergency preparedness and incident coordination. Recurring severe weather exposure compounds this risk, and a reported mass notification failure leaves the department and community vulnerable during active emergencies.
The opportunity
Statewide funding increases for volunteer fire departments signal a favorable budget environment to address preparedness gaps now. Formalizing the EOP ahead of the next severe weather season reduces coordination risk and aligns with the department's existing proactive investment in operational capability.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department's current mass notification system has confirmed functional failures, leaving a critical gap in emergency communication during severe weather and multi-agency response events. This breakdown directly threatens public safety, inter-agency coordination, and the department's ability to fulfill its core emergency preparedness mission.
The opportunity
A confirmed system failure creates immediate replacement urgency, and existing county-level emergency communication infrastructure offers a natural integration path. Statewide increases in volunteer fire department funding and an upcoming budget planning cycle present a timely window to address this gap with available or eligible resources.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Henry County's active procurement of cybersecurity services, new computers, and software renewals signals ongoing IT operational gaps, including insufficient endpoint protection and credential management. Without structured controls in place, public safety personnel and sensitive operational data remain exposed to preventable cyber risks.
The opportunity
Near-term spending activity and an established IT budget envelope create a defined window to address endpoint and credential security before the upcoming fiscal cycle closes. No incumbent solutions have been identified in these categories, allowing for a straightforward procurement path aligned with cooperative purchasing options.
