II. Rationale
Following the enactment of RA 10121, other- wise known as the
Philippine DRRM Act of 2010, the Philippine government took a
proactive approach to manage the disaster consequences and
reduce disaster risks by institutionalizing various mechanisms. Among
these isthe Incident Command System (ICS).
ICS is one of the flagship programs of the OCD.By virtue of various
NDRRMC issuances, ICS has been institutionalized as an on-scene
disaster response tool of the Philippine DRRM System. ICS is a
standard, on-scene, and all-hazard incident management concept
introduced by the US Forest Service that can be used by all DRRM
Councils, emergency management, and response agencies. It is a
disaster response tool that coordinates the actions of all response
groups.
To effectively implement ICS, there is a need to obtain authority from
the decision makers of agencies and organizations, known as
Responsible Officials (ROs). ROs work by delegatingauthority to an
Incident Commander and set- ting the priorities and policy guidance
for tactical response.
To develop better appreciation and under- standing of ICS at the
RO’s level, there is a needto conduct an executive course, designed
as a crash-course, which shall highlight the core ICS principles,
features and functions that are appropriate for the management’s
perspectives.
