Mobilize

Personnel and other resources begin mobilizing when notified through established channels.

Upon notification, deploying personnel receive information to include:

  • Date, time, and place of departure 
  • Mode of transportation to the incident
  • Estimated date and time of arrival
  • Reporting location and assigned supervisor
  • Anticipated incident assignment
  • Anticipated duration of deployment
  • Resource order number
  • Incident number
  • Applicable cost and funding codes

Resource tracking directly links to the mobilization process.

Resources arriving on scene check in according to the receiving organization’s check-in process.

The mobilization of fixed facility resources is referred to as activation rather than deployment.
