John, might be worth pointing them to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap_for_Government, which collects some more advanced use cases by governments (often local).
I don't think it's mentioned there, but this is an example that is about as awesome as it gets : https://www.frontforce.be/news/hulpverleners-winnen-tijd-met-frontforce-emergency/ About how you can make a routing system adapted to fire services with osm. Unfortunately in Dutch, maybe there are similar examples around.
