[CM] [CC] When and How to Setup the Command Centre?

Set up and Activate Command Centre

Definition

A Command Centre is a pre-prepared facility that provides centralised command and control by the Crisis Management Team during a disaster or crisis.

Condition for Activation of Command Centre

Scenario 1

Once the Damage Assessment Team (DAT) has confirmed that the organisation will be relocated to an alternate site, the Command Centre Operation Team (CCO) Team Leader will act to set up the Command Centre at the alternate site.

Scenario 2

If a crisis occurs and it does not disrupt the primary site, the CCO Team Leader will begin to bring the existing Command Centre into operation for occupation by the CM Team and the CCO Team.

Action Steps

Arrive at the Command Centre by the CCO Team Leader or alternate.
Initiate initial notification calls tree by the CCO Team Leader. Any critical employees who cannot be reached should be identified, and the list should be provided to the CCO Team Coordinator on a problem form/log.
Check telephones and notebooks for any identified problems.
Pick up any supplies identified on the problem form/log, including any missing or additional supplies.
Reports have been picked up, and any missing reports have been identified as a problem.
