Which type of briefing is delivered to individual resources or crews who are assigned to operational tasks and/or work at or near the incident site?

Field-level briefings facilitate the flow of critical information from incident command to the front-line responders, enabling a coordinated and efficient response. For example, during a wildfire response, field-level briefings would provide firefighters with specific instructions on containment strategies, safety protocols, and evacuation procedures. As stated in FEMA official material “These briefings will be delivered to individual subordinates, full crews, or multiple crews such as Strike Teams or Task Forces and will occur at the beginning of an operational shift.”

From the perspective of operational personnel, field-level briefings are essential for understanding the scope of their tasks, the hazards they may face, and the operational period’s objectives. These briefings offer an opportunity for responders to ask questions, clarify their roles, and prepare mentally and physically for the challenges ahead.
