Creating a logistics plan

Page updated: 30 November 2020

The logistics plan is a sub-plan within the Incident Action Plan. If you’re the Incident Controller, you need to make sure you have a logistics plan that includes detailed information about SAR resources.

Include information on sourcing and tracking SAR resources

The logistics plan should include information about:

  • what the best SAR resources are for the task
  • where SAR resources have been sourced from
  • when SAR resources accept a SAR task
  • when SAR resources arrive at a location and are ready for deployment
  • where SAR resources will be managed
  • how SAR resources will be managed
  • who will manage and support SAR resources
  • the cost of SAR resources against the SAR operation’s budget.
