Credential & Privileged Access Control Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A Fall 2026 password-management transition mandate and a March 2026 internal audit citing IT security deficiencies have exposed critical gaps in credential and access control. Existing privileged access infrastructure creates adjacent vulnerabilities that elevate risk to district systems, staff, and student data.
The opportunity
The approved 2026–27 budget reflects increased appropriations and data processing spend, signaling financial capacity to act now. Addressing these gaps ahead of the Fall 2026 deadline reduces audit exposure, supports new leadership priorities, and may align with available state cybersecurity funding.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A March 2026 internal audit found outdated or missing antivirus software on 25% of district computers and deficiencies in facility access records, creating measurable compliance and operational risk. With cybersecurity modernization identified as a strategic priority and nearly $5M in annual IT spend, the district has both the mandate and the capacity to act.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative provides substantial aligned funding for endpoint detection and security controls, and the newly approved 2026–27 budget creates immediate purchasing capacity. Addressing audit findings now—under new leadership—reduces compliance exposure and positions the district ahead of the next review cycle.

Emergency Management · Campus Safety
High Priority
About this project
The campus Emergency Operations Plan is inaccessible without a university login, charter-specific emergency exercise records are absent, and an at-risk mass-notification platform creates continuity-of-alerts exposure. Coordinating safety across multiple stakeholders within a broader university ecosystem adds operational complexity and compliance risk.
The opportunity
A newly approved 2026–27 budget and incoming leadership create a timely window to consolidate emergency management systems and close documented preparedness gaps. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports compliance with ongoing emergency management mandates and strengthens safety outcomes for students and staff.

ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The institution is subject to ADA Title II mandates requiring WCAG 2.1 Level AA web compliance by April 26, 2027, with documented gaps already identified as an active risk driver. Failure to meet the deadline exposes the institution to legal liability and reputational harm affecting students, staff, and the broader community.
The opportunity
The firm April 2027 deadline establishes a clear procurement window, and a recently approved budget supports near-term action through established cooperative purchasing channels. Addressing compliance now reduces legal exposure and ensures equitable digital access for all constituents ahead of the regulatory cutoff.
