Facility Administrators manage information about their facility, including the contacts, library, and plan. They can also create an incident and assign themselves and others to positions on an active incident.

Facility Administrator roles and descriptions
Role Description and Tasks
System

All Facility Administrators can manage facility roles within their specific facility. In addition, they have access to the system's administrative features. They can:

  • Manage aspects of planning, including the plan itself, incident response guides, depth chart, objectives, and the labor pool.

  • Add and change accounts for users at their facility.

  • Manage their facility library by adding, editing, and deleting files and folders.

  • Work with the libraries for ended and closed incidents.

  • View and copy incident plans stored at the domain level.

  • Customize details for their facility.
Incident

During an incident, an administrator assigned to a position defined in the associated incident response guide (IRG) takes on that position's role. These individuals can add to and change information in the Incident Dashboard, adding events to the log, updating the status of their position's objectives, sending messages to other participants, and much more.

In addition, a Facility Administrator can:

  • End and close incidents for their facility.

  • Manage details and library files for ended and closed incidents.

  • Run reports on any incident, even those that are ended and closed.
