Dynamic Deployment in EMS is a blend of science and art. When implemented correctly it can have a profound impact on operations and outcomes. Unfortunately the concepts are often misunderstood. As a result its utilization is either ruled out entirely or never reaches its potential. This book is written as a "Primer for EMS" leaders, field staff, and dispatchers alike. It is provided as a means of understanding the basics of what it is, how it works, and what an organization must consider to be successful in its utilization. With the advent of the MARVLIS forecasting software Dynamic Deployment is not just a synonym for System Status Management (SSM). Dynamic Deployment leverages elements of SSM and enhances an organization's performance through the use of mathematical and statistical analysis. It takes the "when" supply and demand analysis of SSM and adds the "where" through the power of MARVLIS. Whether you are wondering if Dynamic Deployment is for you, have an existing system, or just want to broaden your knowledge of the subject this book is a great place to start.
