Tactical Objectives
- Three critical tactical objectives are essential for stabilizing any incident: Rescue, Fire Control, and Property Conservation.
- Objectives are interrelated activities that must be addressed concurrently for effective incident management.
- The priority and completion of these objectives depend on incident size-up, risk management, and situational conditions.
Rescue
- Involves activities aimed at protecting occupants and removing individuals in danger.
- Includes treating the injured to ensure their safety and well-being.
- Completion benchmark: Announce "All Clear" after conducting a primary search.
Fire Control
- Focuses on stopping the forward progress of the fire and bringing it under control.
- Requires a tactical approach that may necessitate achieving interior tenability during aggressive fire-fighting efforts.
- Completion benchmark: Announce "Under Control" when the fire is managed.
Property Conservation
- Aims to minimize primary and secondary damage to property during an incident.
- Often initiated in tandem with active fire control efforts.
- Completion benchmark: Announce "Loss Stopped" once conservation efforts are effective.
Operational Considerations
- Each tactical objective requires a distinct approach from both Command and operational teams.
- Command must balance satisfying each objective simultaneously, often adapting strategies as conditions evolve.
- Successful incident management integrates all three objectives, reflecting their clear, measurable, and attainable nature.
