Equipment & Supplies Planning
While some emergency simulations make intensive use of critical relief equipment and supplies (e.g. tents, blankets, cooking sets, vehicles, helicopters, military assets), the ECB simulations have intentionally been designed to minimise equipment needs and, thereby, make implementation more likely for NGOs that may not have access to extensive resource bases. Nonetheless, there are a few essential equipment and supply requirements:
