ICS

ICS, or Incident Command System, is a standardized framework used by emergency responders to organize and coordinate efforts during emergencies like fires, accidents, or natural disasters. It establishes clear roles, responsibilities, and communication channels so everyone works effectively together. ICS allows for flexible scaling—whether it’s a small event or a large disaster—ensuring resources are managed efficiently and response efforts are streamlined. Its goal is to improve safety, efficiency, and coordination, helping responders control a situation quickly and effectively, ultimately saving lives and minimizing damage.
