What is ICS?
ICS is a standardized, on-scene, all-hazards incident management approach that:
  • Allows its users to adopt an integrated organizational structure that matches the complexities and demands of incidents.
  • Permits seamless integration of responders from all jurisdictions.
  • Can be used for incidents of any type, scope, and complexity.
NIMS promotes the use of ICS for every incident or scheduled event. Using ICS on all incidents helps hone and maintain skills needed for the large-scale incidents.
