The Client

The City of Bonham is a city in North Texas that is comprised of multiple municipal departments, such as City Hall, Fire/EMS, Police, Streets, Water and more. The city was faced with a number of technology issues, preventing them from scaling and supporting residents as the city grows. They contacted Falkon to assess their environments, which led to an overarching engagement with Falkon.

The Challenge

Faced with aging hardware and outdated systems, the City of Bonham engaged Falkon to conduct a comprehensive audit and analysis of all technology systems. The analysis identified several areas in need of improvement that spanned multiple segments of technology, security, communications and more.
