Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Travis County is executing a multi-year rebuild of its public-facing website to meet ADA/WCAG mandates, with a federal compliance deadline of April 24, 2026 and a broader 2028 requirement. A $440,250 ADA Transition Plan budget has been identified, and potential DOJ enforcement exposure heightens urgency for residents who depend on equitable digital access.
The opportunity
The April 2026 federal deadline creates immediate pressure, and dedicated budget is already approved and active across Phase 2 Digital Accessibility and the website rebuild initiative. Acting now aligns with current fiscal planning cycles and reduces enforcement risk while improving equitable service delivery for all residents.

Fleet Safety · Transportation Technology
High Priority
About this project
The county has incurred over $360,000 in vehicle replacement costs from five total-loss incidents within 24 months, each attributed to driver error including distraction and failure to control speed. Budget-approved initiatives for telematics implementation and fleet electrification signal a formal, funded commitment to reducing risk and modernizing county fleet operations.
The opportunity
The PROTECT Competitive Grant Program offers a relevant funding pathway for transportation technology deployment, reducing reliance on local dollars. With budget approvals already in place and executive urgency driven by recent financial losses, this initiative is positioned to advance within the current fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Emergency Management Capability Development & Planning
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Core emergency planning documents — including the Basic Emergency Management Plan, Continuity of Operations Plans, and Hazard Mitigation Plan — remain unstarted as of December 2025, while recent flood events have exposed critical operational vulnerabilities. An ongoing leadership transition in the Emergency Management function elevates the urgency of closing these preparedness gaps before the next disaster cycle.
The opportunity
Dedicated budget — including a $1M grant for warning systems — is active and aligned to emergency management capability initiatives, creating a near-term window to act before a new Director is seated in spring 2026. Advancing core planning now reduces compliance and operational risk while positioning the county to protect residents and meet state and federal preparedness mandates.

Cybersecurity · Compliance & Risk Management
High Priority
About this project
The county must meet FBI CJIS Security Policy Version 6.0 (aligned with NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5) by October 2025, requiring strengthened password management and privileged access controls. A PAM implementation initiative is underway with confirmed Enterprise Risk Management and InfoSec budget, but gaps in dedicated credential governance elevate operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The October 2025 CJIS deadline creates a non-negotiable compliance window, and approved budget allocations are already in place to support action this fiscal cycle. Advancing privileged access controls now reduces breach exposure, protects sensitive criminal justice data, and demonstrates responsible stewardship of public trust.
IT Operations & Incident Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Service Delivery
High Priority
About this project
The county is actively evaluating a replacement for its current incident management platform, signaling dissatisfaction with existing IT operational tooling and broader service delivery gaps. This evaluation is occurring alongside a wider technology modernization effort, increasing the risk of fragmented systems if not addressed cohesively.
The opportunity
An active platform evaluation window and a $29M+ annual IT and software spend signal strong organizational readiness and budget alignment for modernized IT operations tooling. Acting within the current planning cycle supports continuity, reduces operational risk, and positions the county for improved service delivery outcomes.
