County government delivering services across infrastructure, healthcare, and public safety
Broward County Government operates a large-scale public-sector organization serving 5,500–6,500 employees across operations, healthcare, engineering, and infrastructure. The tech stack reveals a CAD-heavy, GIS-driven engineering culture (AutoCAD, MicroStation, OpenRoads Designer, BIM) paired with enterprise systems like PeopleSoft and Maximo for workforce and asset management. Active hiring across operations, healthcare, and engineering—with accelerating velocity—signals concurrent scaling of service delivery and infrastructure modernization, reinforced by projects spanning roadway maintenance, stormwater systems, and county-wide CAD integration.
Notable leadership hires: Chief Financial Officer, Chief Inspector, Assistant Medical Director, Solid Waste Director, Chief Operating Officer
Broward County Government is a regional public agency headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, serving residents, businesses, and visitors across Southeast Florida. The organization delivers services through multiple departments including operations, public health, engineering, risk management, construction, aviation, planning, and finance. Core operational priorities center on infrastructure maintenance and capital projects (roadways, water/sewer, stormwater), public health delivery, safety compliance, and technology systems uptime. The county manages aging infrastructure and mission-critical server environments while advancing strategic initiatives like multi-agency CAD system integration and stormwater drainage improvements.
Primary tools include CAD platforms (AutoCAD, MicroStation, OpenRoads Designer), GIS, BIM, enterprise resource management (PeopleSoft, Maximo), facility management (Cherwell), and lab/health information systems (LIMS, HMIS).
Key pain points include maintaining mission-critical server uptime (99.999% target), integrating multi-agency CAD systems county-wide, managing aging infrastructure, stormwater drainage improvements, and scaling services to meet resident demand.
