Requests, Inventory and Deployments (RID) Premium board icon

Premium boards must be purchased separately and require a license key to import. Once they are imported, they cannot be exported. Contact your Client Success Manager (CSM) for more information.

The Requests, Inventory, and Deployments (RID) board allows you to catalog, request, deploy, and track resources in compliance with the National Incident Management System (NIMS).

As the name implies, the RID solution is comprised of three main components that serve to organize and facilitate the management of your incident collateral. These components allow you to view and manage requests, inventory, and deployments respectively, as well as track costs, statuses, and locations.

Each component also provides a report view that allows you to search and filter by various criteria and export the results.

Key Capabilities

  • Simplified inventory management: View, add, edit, delete, and map inventory records in a centralized location.

  • Comprehensive resource tracking: Deploy, track, and return resources with status updates available for team members.

  • Barcoding: Unique barcodes are automatically generated for all inventory items, enabling barcode scanning through the WebEOC Mobile App.

  • Reporting capabilities: Export data from any RID component (Requests, Inventory, or Deployments) in formatted PDF or Excel reports.

  • Dynamic resource categorization: Define resources as assets or consumables, and categorize them using editable categories (e.g., Equipment, IT, Transportation) with custom fields per category.

  • Maintenance and expiration tracking: Schedule and log maintenance events and track expiration dates for inventory assets.

  • Location management: Easily import, edit, and manage inventory and deployment locations through structured templates.

  • Request cloning and drafting: Create and clone requests to streamline repetitive or future-planned actions.

  • Dashboard visualization: The Dashboard tab provides full-screen visualizations, real-time cost tracking, and overdue request monitoring for enhanced situational awareness.

  • Dark mode support: A dark mode theme provides improved visibility in low-light environments. Dark mode must be enabled for your instance before you can turn it on.

  • Funding source management: Track budgets, grants, and other funding sources tied to specific inventory items.

  • Crisis Track integration: Leverage the Work Category, Sourcing, and Date Purchased fields for FEMA reimbursement and audit reporting.

  • Mobile warehouse operations: Use the WebEOC Mobile App to scan, deploy, and receive inventory in the field via barcode recognition.

    • This board is highly configurable, with the intent of meeting the needs of diverse clients while requiring fewer board and/or code changes. As a result, there are more assignable display views and board permissions than in a typical board.

    • This board makes extensive use of process permissions for filtering and assigning records.

    • This board was created using the Requests/Tasks Board; familiarity with the Requests/Tasks Board will help you understand RID's processes. For more information on the Requests/Tasks Board, see Requests and Tasks.
