Why do we need an IAP?
?
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Purpose of an IAP• An IAP is a document used to record incident priorities,
strategy, tactical actions, and supporting information.
• An IAP contains:▫ Overall incident status.▫ Priorities and strategy.▫ Specific objectives and necessary supporting information.▫ Assignment of responsibility for each objective.▫ Date and time of next operational period.▫ The Plan may be oral or written; ideally it is written. (If
written, it may have a number of forms as attachments.)
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
History of the IAP•IAPs are one of the hallmarks of the
Incident Command System (ICS), which was developed in response to a series of fires in Southern California in the early 1970s.
•It is now the “gold standard” for managing incidents worldwide.

Where do We Begin?
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Upon Notification of an Incident…•The person(s) in command activates the
IAP planning process.•Depending on the nature of the incident,
this may be:▫The Public Health Officer▫The Public Health Director▫The Public Health DOC Director▫The individual with responsibility for the
Public Health and Medical response to the incident.

Incident Priorities•The IAP is the tool for the Incident
Commander or EOC Director to establish overall incident priorities. These usually fall in the order of:
1. Life Safety2. Incident Stabilization (immediate threats)3. Property / Equipment Preservation4. Return to Pre-incident Conditions

Steps to Building an IAP1. Assessment (incident, facilities, &
resources)2. Command Meeting (establish priorities)3. General Staff Meeting (establish
objectives)4. Tactics Meeting (review strategies /
resources)5. Planning Meeting (assess strategies /
resources)6. Operational Briefing (share the Plan)7. Execute the Plan

1. Conduct Assessment• Incident Information:
▫Current and accurate information regarding the incident is crucial. Sources of information may include: OES, EOC, Healthcare Providers, Field Personnel, Public, Media, Subject Matter Experts.
• Facility Assessment:▫Facilities may include Public Health facilities,
healthcare facilities, alternate facilities, etc.• Resource Assessment:
▫This may include assessment of available personnel, supplies, and equipment (depending on the nature of the incident).
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Command Meeting•Should include authorities able to provide
initial direction for establishing priorities. Should be brief (10-15 minutes).
•Consideration should be given to:▫Life Safety (health / medical experts)▫Property Protection (law / fire)▫Financial Impact (administration)▫Political Impact (city, county, state)
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Command / General Staff Meeting• After the Command Priorities have been established,
the DOC Director will convene a meeting to establish Incident OBJECTIVES. This meeting should be brief (15-20 minutes), and include:▫Command Staff:
PIO Liaison Safety
▫General Staff: Operations Logistics Planning Finance
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
SMART Objectives• Specific: Can we understand exactly what is expected?
• Measurable: Will we know when we have accomplished the objective?
• Achievable: Are we able to accomplish this with what we have?
• Realistic: Are the expectations reasonable for this operational period?
• Time: Has a timeline been established for accomplishing the objective?
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Tactics Meeting•Purpose: To review the tactics developed
by the Operations Section
• Lead by the Operations Section Coordinator
•Includes:▫Safety Officer (ICS215)▫Logistics Section Coordinator▫Resource Unit Leader (ICS205A)
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Tactics Meeting•Determines how the selected strategy will
be accomplished in order to achieve the incident objectives.
•Assigns resources to implement the tactics.
•Identifies methods for monitoring tactics and resources to determine if adjustments are required (e.g., different tactics, different resources, or new strategy).
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Planning Meeting• Following the Tactics Meeting, preparations are made
for the Planning Meeting, to include the following actions coordinated by the Planning Section: ▫Review the ICS Form 215 developed in the Tactics
Meeting. ▫Review the ICS Form 215A, Incident Safety Analysis
(prepared by the Safety Officer), based on the information in the ICS Form 215.
▫Assess current operations effectiveness and resource efficiency.
▫Gather information to support incident management decisions.
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Planning Meeting•Purpose: To provide the opportunity for the
Command and General Staff to review and validate the operational plan as proposed by the Operations Section Chief.
•Lead by the Planning Section Coordinator
•Includes all Command and General Staff.
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Planning Meeting• The Planning Section Chief conducts the Planning Meeting
following a fixed agenda.
• The Operations Section Coordinator delineates the amount and type of resources he or she will need to accomplish the plan. The Planning Section’s “Resources Unit” will have to work with the Logistics Section to accommodate.
• At the conclusion of the meeting, the Planning Section Staff will indicate when all elements of the plan and support documents are required to be submitted so the plan can be collated, duplicated, and made ready for the Operational Period Briefing.
Prepared by: Doug Buchanan Consulting - www.DisasterDoug.com
Finalizing the Plan• Once all elements of the IAP have been received
and compiled, the Incident Commander or DOC Director must sign the final document.
