This student project will develop a comprehensive and inclusive major emergency management framework, that can be applied across a number of jurisdictions and across multi-agencies for the response phase of an incident.

It will conduct research to determine the level of inter-agency clarity across the concepts of command, control and coordination. This analysis will then be used to examine the processes for event handover, including identifying any boundaries of agency triggers for changeover and help identify the strengths and weaknesses of current Incident command systems.
