Resource Management Task 1: Identify Requirements

During an incident, personnel continually identify, validate, and refine resource needs.

This process involves identifying:

  • The type and quantity of resources needed.
  • The location where resources should be sent.
  • Who will receive and use the resources.

Resource availability and needs constantly change as an incident evolves.

Incident management personnel and their affiliated organizations should coordinate as closely and as early as possible, both in advance of and during incidents.
