Contingency Plan
Contingency Plan is a forward plan in a state of
uncertainty in which:
1. scenarios and objectives are agreed,
2. managerial and technical actions defined,
3. potential response systems put in place
in order to prevent, or better respond to, an
emergency or critical situation.
Contingency Plan (cont’n)
Uses of Contingency Plan:
• to predict a specific disaster in a locality
(worst case scenario)
• to prevent its effects
• to reduce its impact
• to respond
• to cope with the consequences
Operations Plan
• Also called Incident Action Plan
• Formulated and implemented immediately
(on-scene)
• Used to address a specific incident within a
specific time frame
• Contents are actual and precise
