See I think u shouldn't be able to name the appliances u want it should just be the number of appliances u require otherwise it will just breed old habits of some groups responding only their own appliances instead of closer ones.

Why is it before SACAD came online somne groups were given an operational update evening by an RO which included all GP's DGO's Capt's Lt's and Snr's yet other groups were not given this... One would think that if your are going to do this you do it properly and give your little presentation to all groups not just heres the book read it

« on: February 07, 2012, 09:31:34 AM »All fair and valid points, but when this brigade rolls it's 34p with RCR gear on it instead of the paged 24 doesn't it technically render the rescue gear offline. Therefore SACAD will respond the next closest RCR appliance if there is a job inside that RCR appliance beat?
Yep bang on.

You can respond any appliance out of your brigade that the OIC deem neccessary to a fire, as i believe CFS went with a call rotation for appliances for jobs, hence one grass fire job may pull our 34 but very next call it will pull our 19 (please someone correct me if i am wrong) so we quite often have responded our 34 to calls that only our 19 have been tagged for. As for why they did this i have no idea??

Personally i think region must be getting pretty bored up there to be whining about appliances using K-Codes and calling their appliances 19 or pump19. Case in point one brigade the other day calling their appliance 24P instead of 19. Adelaide Fire than having to spend the next minute clarifying if that appliance was actually a 19 or 24P. Why not just leave it be until its fixed in CAD then directed to all brigades by STATE as to what their appliance callsign is.

I've seen the local unit down here spend money like its going out of fashion before, and the 4 or so sets of RCR gear they have just lying around in storage doesnt come from donations.

Perhaps cfs are the closest resource because the local station is tied up at another call?
No, the MFS truck was sitting in station.
.......Ask me how I know.

With regards to the regional duty officer thing could it be because of the number off appliances tagged on the response therefore it thinks its a 2nd alarm job?

I think that its rubbish having such short notice for such a long deployment, but it all comes down to poor planning, i have done a 3 day KI deployment on 10 mins notice yet everyone else on the same plane had 12 hrs notice.
And why on earth would you need your OPS support brigade to activate for a 3 or 4 appliance strike team to well outside your area.

« on: January 05, 2012, 06:12:41 AM »Mmm interesting. Looks like they have accidentally created a saas event and then attached you to a "saas job".Cheers Alex makes sense now.... Interesting that Assist SAAS is quite an often event for MFS/CFS yet its not in CAD, would have thought it would have carried over from BOMS
There is no "assist saas" event type in cad for fire or ses attendance, hence why we are seeing a lot of "assist resident" with further details saying the job is assisting ambos.
That job "request saas assist" is actually used to send a message to the Ambos for them to attend a fire job in 'interCAD'' which is the link between safire, saas and spoil when SACAD is brought fully online.
Hope that makes sense.

Lodge a written grievance to Gary Bau. In time SACAD will be good but it will take time to get all the info and responses correct in the system.
