NJR attended the Clean Pacific Conference on August 17th and 18th in Renton, WA and had the pleasure of re-connecting with colleagues as this conference was held face-to-face. Since the pandemic began, NJR, like everyone else, had to adapt to a new way of doing business into a digital forum. For us, that meant we had to find an effective method of delivering training and incident management exercises virtually.

The development of a Virtual Incident Command Post and the associated adapted ICS processes is an ongoing effort as we must continue to change and adapt with the times and capabilities of the digital platforms we work with. Since there is no such thing as one size fits all, NJR has been working with each of our clients to develop methodologies that meet their needs, while still allowing their responders to function within the established parameters of the Incident Command System.

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the incident management industry has revolutionized the way we practice and respond to incidents. Once performed in large Incident Command Posts (ICPs), the pandemic has now prevented face-to-face gatherings of Incident Management Teams (IMTs). As an industry, we’ve had to rethink the approach without reducing the effectiveness of the response.

With NJR, you can now manage your exercise and/or real response virtually. Your IMT members can work safely from any location while engaging with each other in using the same established Incident Command System (ICS) processes. NJR has worked extensively to establish an effective Virtual Incident Command Post (VICP) concept:

- Move about within a virtual space that mirrors a traditional physical ICP
- Conduct virtual conversations and ICS Planning Cycle Meetings
- Share files
- Collaborate to jointly complete standard ICS forms and develop plans
- Don’t let size stop you – NJR has facilitated 2 exercises with over 300 participants each. We can also manage hybrid type events involving a combination of both physical and virtual participants
