After-Action Final Report

From the list of lessons learned and corrective actions identified, stakeholders will identify opportunities for improved planning, mitigation measures, response improvements, and long-term recovery ideas.

The after-action final report should include:

  • Recommendations shared with all stakeholders
  • Identification of any new stakeholders
  • Future training plans
  • Short- and long-term goals
  • Timetable and implementation strategy
  • Implementation assignments
  • Follow-up schedule and requirement
  • Documentation

An after-action process is an excellent tool that creates opportunity for change and can enhance community support. After-action activity should be automatic. In fact, the event does not conclude until it is accomplished.
