… by developing standard operating
procedures
Every organization needs a set of rules to govern its members.
Standard operating procedures (SOPs) provide those rules for many
fire organizations. For SOPs to be effective, they must reflect
not only the size, mission, and scope of the client department,
but its culture. By helping our clients develop and implement SOPs,
we enable them to satisfy appropriate standards and strengthen their
operations.
The Guidance Group employs a unique, collaborative approach to
SOP creation, developing them in conjunction with the organization's
management and operating personnel. We believe that SOPs developed
in this manner have a better chance for successful implementation
and generate improved communication and working relationships while
strengthening operations. Our process includes a thorough review
of current written and informal procedures, comparing them against
fire service standards, regulatory requirements and actual department
practices.
