When developing your team's deployment strategy, consider the following:
Deployment Radius: Determine ground distance versus commercial air travel capabilities.
Response Timing: Rapid deployment requires extensive upfront preparation; later response allows for more time to mobilize.
Two-Phase Response: Consider sending a small, self-contained initial team for stabilization, followed by additional personnel and equipment once needs are confirmed.
Coordination: Explore caravaning (coordinating transit with other teams) or co-mingling (combining teams and equipment) to enhance capacity and logistics.
