[ISM] - 07/2026

Built around FEMA's Incident Support Model, this extension equips Emergency Operations Centers with a full suite of EOC-AP and IAP forms, from incident briefings and objectives to communications plans and community lifeline conditions tracking. Structured role-based task checklists — spanning EOC Director, Section Chiefs, and Support Units through Activation, Operational, and Demobilization phases — bring clarity and accountability to every stage of EOC activation. It equips agencies to staff, coordinate, and stand down their EOC with the same rigor and structure FEMA expects on the incident side.
