Integrated Emergency Management System (IEMS) 7
Integrated Emergency Management System (IEMS) 7 : The Integrated Emergency Management System (IEMS) was developed by FEMA to help states implement CEM. IEMS is: (1) A philosophy of inclusiveness - the groups that will respond to disasters are brought into the planning process. (2) A process of program development steps tied to the four phases of CEM: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. (3) Plans focused on functions generic to all disasters, not on specific hazards, agencies or people. (4) A formal emergency management strategy promulgated by FEMA in the early 1980s. Its goal was to "develop and maintain a credible emergency management capability nationwide by integrating activities along functional lines at all levels of the government and, to the fullest extent possible, across all hazards"
