- SUBJECT: OPS - Communications Shortfall - Part 2/2
-
-
- "OES is working in several areas to remedy this shortfall:
- the Operational Area Satellite Information System (OASIS) is in
- the installation phase. This system will result in situation
- reporting that is more timely and accurate. The implementation
- of Senate Bill 1841 (Petris) will result in a standardized system
- for emergency management. This will involve components already
- known to be effective such as ICS (Incident Command System), MACS
- (Multi-Agency Coordination System), the Mutual Aid systems and
- the operational area concept. Even with successful implementation
- of these projects, each organization and individual involved in
- emergency management needs to examine these issues from their own
- perspective. What can be done to ensure the most timely and
- accurate damage assessment? How can we ensure that responders
- and decision-makers can communicate with all those they need to,
- when they need to? How can we ensure that each entity and
- individual involved works with others in a manner that is truly
- coordinated? Each of us needs to answer these questions this
- year."
