Incident Command System (ICS) Training for Field-Level Supervisors and Staff (2016)

Below is the uncorrected machine-read text of this chapter, intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text of each book. Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.

Understanding the size and flap locations is critical. When you use the box for this project its orientation is going to change from “Height” to “Length.” The flaps will go from top and bottom to right and left side. The cuts for the flaps and related fold seam will become the divider for the top and bottom. When selecting a box to use as the source material, all three dimensions are important (LxWxH). Width will dictate the length of the flaps divided by two. For example, an 18” wide moving box will have 9” wide flaps. If the box is 18” high as well, then four packing list envelops, which are 12” tall and 9” wide, will fit side by side (two in the middle with one on each flap). It is recommended that while field researching, take the number of packing list envelopes you intend to use. Lay them out on the potential cardboard as you intend to use it. Going beyond 8 panels is possible, but isn’t practical due to folds and size. It is probably better to make a supplementary kit for the additional forms.

212 CHAPTER 12: ICS AND TIMS REFERENCE LISTS

213 There are two categories listed below. The first category is related to the Incident Command System (ICS). The second category is related to the Traffic Incident Management System (TIMS). These two systems are not the same, they complement one another. ICS is concerned with the strategic level through organization of the event while TIMS provides the tactical employment of resources. There will be situations when ICS and TIMS will be used together. However, there are also situations when one or the other will be used separately. These lists provide further references to consult when developing your ICS training program, they are not exhaustive. Additionally, other disciplines’ perspectives through their training and exercises should be sought to develop as holistic a program as possible for both ICS and TIMS.
