Endpoint Device Standardization & IT Vendor Evaluation
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The Tennessee Board of Regents has issued an active RFI signaling system-wide gaps in endpoint management and the need for a unified IT toolset. Inconsistent endpoint oversight elevates cybersecurity risk and undermines operational continuity across campuses.
The opportunity
The RFI carries an imminent response deadline, making this a time-critical procurement window. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline acquisition, and system-wide appropriations support IT investment capacity for institutions ready to act.

Emergency Management · Campus Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The institution's public-facing emergency plan references an outdated 2020–2021 handbook, contract renewal timing for the current mass notification platform is unknown, and emergency management responsibilities are delegated to the county—limiting institutional control and continuity. These gaps collectively elevate operational risk for students, staff, and campus stakeholders.
The opportunity
Uncertain contract renewal timing and an outdated emergency plan create a natural re-evaluation window before continuity gaps become critical. Consolidating institutional ownership of emergency management and notification now supports long-term resilience, aligns with upcoming planning cycles, and may be eligible for cooperative purchasing vehicles to streamline procurement.
Fleet & Transportation Safety Management
Fleet Management · Workforce & Career Training
High Priority
About this project
The institution operates a commercial truck-driving program with documented heavy-vehicle exposure, creating latent fleet oversight needs. No active incidents or formal procurement drivers are currently identified, but unmanaged fleet risk can escalate quickly if safety events or insurance pressures emerge.
The opportunity
Proactively establishing fleet safety protocols ahead of any incident protects students, staff, and public liability exposure. Cooperative purchasing channels are available to support streamlined procurement if urgency increases, aligning with future fiscal planning cycles.
Web Accessibility & Digital Compliance Readiness
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
Web accessibility has been flagged as an area of institutional interest, though no confirmed compliance gaps or enforcement actions have been documented. As federal and state accessibility standards continue to evolve, unaddressed gaps can expose public institutions to legal and reputational risk.
The opportunity
Proactively assessing digital accessibility positions the institution ahead of potential enforcement and aligns with broader equity and public-service obligations. Addressing gaps during a planning cycle is more cost-effective than reactive remediation following an audit or complaint.
