Span of Control refers to the number of participants and/or resources a supervisor will oversee during an incident or event-type scenario. This can be anywhere from 1:3 to 1:10 depending on the size of the incident, per the National Incident Management System instructions. Usually it will be the lower number but in some cases, especially with law enforcement related incident, a 1:10 ratio will be common.
The planning section of the Incident Command System or ICS does a lot to do with in terms of intelligence gathering, analyzing, exploitation and dissemination. This section will gather needed data and information concerning an incident and put it into an order where it can be read correctly by stakeholders and command staff. In many cases, the Planning Section of ICS will create the Incident Action Plan (IAP) and maintain the status of an incident.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has a program known as the National Exercise Program (NEP). This program exams the preparedness and readiness of communities and areas all across the United States of America through exercise programs geared at National Preparedness and related areas.
