IT Modernization American Fork City already relies on ArcGIS, CAD tools, Python and Cloudflare for operations, and is rolling out a 10 Gbps fiber network with Strata Networks. This signals readiness for cloud-based municipal apps, data analytics, and enhanced resident services, creating opportunities for cybersecurity hardening, managed IT services, and GIS/data integration across planning, permitting and public engagement.

Infrastructure Analytics The Infrasense acquisition of a local bridge inspection firm and the fiber expansion point to a growing focus on infrastructure monitoring and maintenance. This creates opportunities to offer data-driven asset analytics, drone/inspection workflows, predictive maintenance, and integrated reporting for bridges, roads and other critical assets.

Workforce Tech A collaboration with YouScience to develop local workforce programs indicates demand for training platforms and talent management tools. Potential offerings include an LMS and bilingual training modules for city staff and residents, along with certification tracking and career-path visualization.

Smart City Readiness The city’s educated, bilingual workforce and proximity to major regional hubs position it for smart city pilots. Opportunities exist to deploy open data dashboards, GIS-enabled planning tools, and citizen-facing apps that leverage the existing ArcGIS stack and forthcoming high-speed connectivity.

Public Services Efficiency With active Police, Fire, library, planning and public works departments, there is potential to streamline permits, licensing, and emergency communications using secure, scalable software. Solutions leveraging Amazon SES, reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare can improve digital forms, notifications, and overall resident service delivery within a mid-sized municipal budget.
