Title: Key Decision Log Lesson Objectives


1
Key Decision Log Lesson Objectives
  • Describe the KDL
  • purpose,
  • information requested,
  • timing, and
  • uses of the data
  • Identify where and how to access it

2
Purpose
Maximize organizational performance
and facilitate real-time and post-incident
learning by capturing key decisions,
activities, and outcomes, and attributes of the
environment within which these occur using an
on-line database
3
Task Responsibility
  • Begin KDL as soon as practicable after
    recognition that a fire has a high probability of
    becoming a large event host unit
  • Enter key decisions that have a significant
    impact upon or implement incident objectives
    (WFDSS, Delegation) IMO, host unit (s)
  • Entries depends upon frequency of key decisions
    and when it is practicable to enter that
    information.

4
Why?
  • By understanding how and why decision makers
    select a specific course of action, the
    complexity of an incident can be
  • better understood
  • transparently communicated
  • By centrally locating KDLS, we can identify
  • best practices
  • decision-traps

5
What? - KDL builds a story
  • I/we have made a Decision, Take an action, or
    Raise an issue in order to move towards meeting
    an objective.
  • We need to do this now because of some pressing
    or emerging issues or conditions.
  • We expect this to impact key aspects of the
    incident, e.g. safety, ecology, costs.
  • We expect this to affect our incident, incidents
    in the area, the region, the national/
    international situation.

How can this information be usedby team and/or
host?
  • Build the story fire narrative
  • Sharpen recollection During and After
    Action learning

AA- IC check-ins Planning meetings Close-outs Afte
r Action Reviews Case studies

How can this information be used organizationally?
Multiple teams Multiple incidents
  • What are the patterns of attention/ decision
    traps?
  • frequency of types of objectives
  • frequency of drivers of action
  • Frames and mental models
  • connect to WFDSS to consider how strategies,
    tactics and rationale flow from LMP to fire
    outcome
