Multi-Agency Coordination System

Because SEMS strives to make disaster response coordinated, one of its important components is the creation of a Multi-Agency Coordination System. Agencies and disciplines at any SEMS level need to work together in a coordinated effort to develop joint plans, coordinate inter-agency resource use and facilitate decisions. This is why CAHF stresses the importance of working with your local partners on disaster planning before a disaster occurs. Call your local fire department or local Office of Emergency Services to find out who is in charge of emergency services coordination in your county.

SEMS Regulations also requires the use of inter-agency coordination in all Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs).
