Abstract

In a scenario of structural intervention situation, the On-Scene Commanders (COS) only have at their disposal the data provided by the one who gave the alert, which are insufficient to provide a secure and informed decision-making. Through a quantitative, descriptive, observational, and cross-sectional research, using a questionnaire applied to operational staff who perform the COS function, results a survey of the COS information needs. According to the results, it is concluded that the purpose of knowing the risks and outlining a more effective, faster and safer combat strategy for operational personnel involved, could be compromised by the limited information available. A proposal for a new support tool for COS function - the Initial Intervention Plan (PII) - was developed, which is a document of quick and intuitive consultation, supplying the needs of information for COS.
