Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity & Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The college faces a hard WCAG 2.1 compliance deadline of April 2026, with identified gaps in accessibility remediation across digital content and documents. A fragmented tool ecosystem is slowing progress, elevating legal and equity risk for students and staff who rely on accessible digital learning environments.
The opportunity
Budget planning is actively underway, and a recent technology access fee increase provides a direct funding signal for remediation efforts. Acting now aligns with the current fiscal cycle, supports the institution's digital learning modernization initiative, and reduces compliance exposure ahead of the April 2026 deadline.

About this project
A ransomware incident in July 2024 exposed critical gaps in endpoint management and credential security, prompting an active post-incident improvement initiative. A Tennessee Board of Regents RFI for endpoint device standardization and active password security mandates signal unresolved vulnerabilities that elevate institutional and student data risk.
The opportunity
A TBR-approved technology access fee increase provides direct, confirmed funding for IT upgrades, and the FY 2026 COPS School Violence Prevention Program represents an additional eligible funding pathway. With the TBR endpoint standardization RFI deadline approaching in August 2026, acting now aligns procurement with the formal process and post-incident accountability expectations.

Fleet Management · Campus Safety
High Priority
About this project
The college faces growing liability exposure from aging fleet assets and unmonitored driver behavior, creating proof-of-fault risk and operational vulnerability. A concurrent EV charging infrastructure initiative signals active fleet modernization planning, making integrated telematics and safety monitoring a timely operational priority.
The opportunity
The active EV infrastructure initiative and available cooperative procurement pathways create a near-term window to advance fleet safety technology with reduced procurement burden. Addressing telematics and driver monitoring now supports risk mitigation, aligns with broader modernization goals, and may qualify for external funding support.

Emergency Management · Campus Safety
High Priority
About this project
The college's current mass-notification platform faces uncertain contract renewal timing and potential end-of-life status, creating reliability gaps that directly conflict with Clery Act mandates for timely campus emergency communications. A low emergency preparedness score, absent HSEEP exercises, and no active emergency management grant awards compound the compliance and operational risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026 COPS School Violence Prevention Program represents an active funding pathway for emergency management improvements, and an ongoing leadership transition creates a natural window to re-evaluate and modernize notification infrastructure. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces compliance exposure and strengthens campus-wide safety outcomes before contract or platform continuity is further at risk.
