Emergency Preparedness & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Campus Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The college carries a critically low Emergency Preparedness Score, lacks a formal mass notification system, and has documented gaps in required exercises and hazard mitigation plan compliance. A 2026 federal deadline for hazard mitigation plan follow-up and adherence to NIMS standards elevate both operational and compliance risk for students, staff, and the surrounding community.
The opportunity
Active federal grant programs explicitly support emergency management and mass notification initiatives, with procurement windows aligning to the current planning cycle. Consolidating fragmented alert infrastructure now reduces long-term costs, closes compliance gaps, and strengthens campus-wide emergency readiness ahead of the 2026 deadline.
Campus-Wide Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Modernization
IT Modernization · Higher Education Technology
High Priority
About this project
The college has an active RFP for a campus-wide Virtual Desktop Infrastructure solution, reflecting an in-motion procurement effort to modernize academic and administrative computing. Delays in addressing aging desktop environments can disrupt instructional continuity, limit student access equity, and increase IT operational burden.
The opportunity
An active RFP signals immediate procurement readiness, and a $650K state grant awarded for academic support systems indicates available funding capacity for this investment. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns procurement with grant timelines and strengthens long-term IT sustainability for students and staff.

Web Accessibility · Higher Education Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The college has identified gaps in WCAG 2.1 compliance across its digital portals and content tools, creating legal and regulatory exposure. Student accommodation mandates and assistive technology requirements further elevate the urgency of accessible, inclusive digital experiences for all learners.
The opportunity
A positive funding environment — including a recent state grant for academic support systems — may support staged remediation efforts aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Addressing compliance gaps now reduces legal risk, advances equity commitments, and strengthens outcomes for students requiring accommodations.
Strengthening Credential Security and Endpoint Protection
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The college's Microsoft 365 environment lacks a standardized password management solution, creating a credential security gap that elevates institutional risk. Without consistent endpoint management practices, IT staff face growing exposure across devices and user accounts.
The opportunity
Active IT investment momentum and a positive budget environment make this an opportune time to address credential and endpoint gaps ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to simplify procurement and accelerate implementation with limited administrative burden.
