Abstract

Traditionally, the fire service has improved by following a model based on experience [1]. Introduced by Brunacini, this is an iterative model that describes the experience-based approach to improvement and how fire service operations evolve over time. At the core of this approach are a department’s standard operating guidelines (SOGs) which drive how activities will be performed (i.e., strategy and tactics) at an emergency. Firefighters train to department SOGs and subsequently work to execute based on their training at emergencies. Post-incident, firefighters assess their training/SOGs based on the outcome. These assessments can lead to revisions to the SOGs and corresponding training.
