Incident Briefing
Purpose. The Incident Briefing (ICS 201) provides the Incident Commander (and the Command and General Staffs) with
basic information regarding the incident situation and the resources allocated to the incident. In addition to a briefing
document, the ICS 201 also serves as an initial action worksheet. It serves as a permanent record of the initial response
to the incident.
Preparation. The briefing form is prepared by the Incident Commander for presentation to the incoming Incident
Commander along with a more detailed oral briefing.
Distribution. Ideally, the ICS 201 is duplicated and distributed before the initial briefing of the Command and General
Staffs or other responders as appropriate. The “Map/Sketch” and “Current and Planned Actions, Strategies, and Tactics”
sections (pages 1–2) of the briefing form are given to the Situation Unit, while the “Current Organization” and “Resource
Summary” sections (pages 3–4) are given to the Resources Unit.
Notes:
• The ICS 201 can serve as part of the initial Incident Action Plan (IAP).
• If additional pages are needed for any form page, use a blank ICS 201 and repaginate as needed.
