- 1. Designed for DisasterHuman Centred Critical Incident Management Systems
- 3. Key Questions1. Identify the environment in which operational staff work during crisis in terms of the defining components of the environment and the pressures which operate in the environment.2. How does these forces shape the design of the environment?3. How do we assess the effectiveness of new capabilities added to the environment?
- 4. Nature of CIME EnvironmentsModern crisis response environments are complex, high workload environments.Key purpose of these environments is:Development and maintenance of individual and shared situation awareness;Decision making in support of crisis response.If a capability does not aid the incident controller to make a decision or respond – why is it there?Sometimes the best system is a notebook and pencil
- 6. An Alternative View – Pressures and Remedies
- 7. Focussing Idea – Civil / Military Large Scale Disaster ResponseTsunami responseHurricane Katrina9/11Timor, Solomons
- 8. Key Concepts - OODA Loop
- 9. Key Concepts – Human PsycheModel of Human Psyche (based on C.G. Jung)
- 10. Key Concepts – Human MemorySchiffrin Model of Human Memory Systems
- 11. Key Concepts- Human Centred DesignFocus is on human as an agent interacting with control systems.Most significant work has been done in the petroleum industry esp. the North Sea.Resulted in the development of ISO 11064 – Standard for Ergonomic Design of Control Centres
- 12. Human Centred Design Principles (ISO 11064)Application of a human-centred design approach.Integrate ergonomics in engineering practiceImprove design through iterationConduct situational analysisConduct task analysisDesign error tolerant systemsEnsure user participationForm an inter-disciplinary design teamDocument ergonomic design basis
- 13. Key Concepts –Human Centred Design
- 14. Key Concepts – Interoperability
- 15. Key Concepts - Knowledge Development
- 16. What Defines a Critical Incident Management Environment?
- 17. Shaping The Design – Expanding the Boundary of Human Consideration
- 18. Knowledge Wall

- 29. Exercise Neptune’s TreasureConventional CT ExerciseHijacked Ferry ScenarioFocus on assessment of a tool to manage tactical level information flows.
- 32. Assessment MethodsAssessment Types:Subjective: The individual or group is asked to assess it’s own SA, either through a process of direct questioning or a written evaluation without suspending the activity;Implicit: Observable improvements in performance resulted from the improved SA;Explicit: Current activity is suspended and direct probing by the evaluator to assess the understanding and SA of the individual or group at that point in the scenario.Resulting in:Qualitative data “subjective measures”Quantitative data “numeric measures”
- 33. Individual and Team Performance MeasuresDerived from Smith-Jentsch et al 1998
- 35. Assessment examples If I have time....
- 36. Exercise Western ExplorerConsequence Management and Investigation ExerciseTool Assessment based on information flows between operational level organizations.First significant trial of ICT system involving supporting agency (WA Health EOC).
- 37. Incident Site
- 38. Police Forward Command Post
- 40. Operation Golden Phoenix 2007
- 41. Key LessonsKeep required level of learning by subject matter experts to a minimum.Keep assessment goals focused.Frame questions to allow specialists to draw on implicit knowledge base to add value to the assessment.Assessment only takes place at the surface cognitive processes of the operators using the tool. Heavier use of out of exercise questioning could address this problem.
