Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG) 101 provides Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) guidance on the fundamentals of
planning and developing emergency operations plans (EOP). CPG 101
shows that EOPs are connected to planning efforts in the areas of
prevention, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation. Version
2.0 of this Guide expands on these fundamentals and encourages
emergency and homeland security managers to engage the whole
community in addressing all risks that might impact their
jurisdictions. While CPG 101 maintains its link to previous
guidance, it also reflects the reality of the current operational
planning environment. This Guide integrates key concepts from
national preparedness policies and doctrines, as well as lessons
learned from disasters, major incidents, national assessments, and
grant programs. CPG 101 provides methods for planners to: Conduct
community-based planning that engages the whole community by using
a planning process that represents the actual population in the
community and involves community leaders and the private sector in
the planning process; Ensure plans are developed through an
analysis of risk; Identify operational assumptions and resource
demands; Prioritize plans and planning efforts to support their
seamless transition from development to execution for any threat or
hazard; Integrate and synchronize efforts across all levels of
government. CPG 101 incorporates the following concepts from
operational planning research and day-to-day experience: The
process of planning is just as important as the resulting document;
Plans are not scripts followed to the letter, but are flexible and
adaptable to the actual situation; Effective plans convey the goals
and objectives of the intended operation and the actions needed to
achieve them. Successful operations occur when organizations know
their roles, understand how they fit into the overall plan, and are
able to execute the plan. Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG)
101 provides guidelines on developing emergency operations plans
(EOP). It promotes a common understanding of the fundamentals of
risk-informed planning and decision making to help planners examine
a hazard or threat and produce integrated, coordinated, and
synchronized plans. The goal of CPG 101 is to make the planning
process routine across all phases of emergency management and for
all homeland security mission areas. This Guide helps planners at
all levels of government in their efforts to develop and maintain
viable all-hazards, all-threats EOPs. Accomplished properly,
planning provides a methodical way to engage the whole community in
thinking through the life cycle of a potential crisis, determining
required capabilities, and establishing a framework for roles and
responsibilities. It shapes how a community envisions and shares a
desired outcome, selects effective ways to achieve it, and
communicates expected results. Each jurisdiction's plans must
reflect what that community will do to address its specific risks
with the unique resources it has or can obtain. Planners achieve
unity of purpose through coordination and integration of plans
across all levels of government, nongovernmental organizations, the
private sector, and individuals and families. This supports the
fundamental principle that, in many situations, emergency
management and homeland security operations start at the local
level and expand to include Federal, state, territorial, tribal,
regional, and private sector assets as the affected jurisdiction
requires additional resources and capabilities. A shared planning
community increases the likelihood of integration and
synchronization, makes planning cycles more efficient and
effective, and makes plan maintenance easier.
