Jackson County staff asked the Board of Commissioners to approve a three-year contract with Bold Planning Incorporated for continuity-of-operations software intended to centralize and modernize emergency planning.
"This helps us plan our ability to maintain, basically, essential government functions when we have an emergency disaster or some kind of disruptive incident," the staff member said, adding the platform is "a secure, standardized, scalable platform" and an upgrade from prior software. Staff said the contract is for 36 months and that "It's $43,972 budgeted in our emergency management program." The request was presented as a regular agenda item for the board's April 8 meeting; no board action was recorded at the staff meeting.
The staff member framed the purchase as a modernization and centralization effort to improve continuity planning during emergencies. The item will return to the Board of Commissioners for formal consideration on the regular meeting agenda.
