Federal Interagency Operational Plans

The Federal Interagency Operational Plans (FIOPs) describe how the federal government aligns resources and delivers core capabilities to implement the five National Planning Frameworks. The FIOPs provide a federal concept of operations, integrating and synchronizing national-level capabilities, for prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery to support all levels of government. These plans also help federal departments and agencies develop and maintain department-level operational plans.

Incident Annexes to the FIOPs

The incident annexes address unique concepts of operations, roles, responsibilities, critical tasks or resources for a unique threat or hazard that requires additional information not addressed by the FIOPs. Planners may find these documents useful in enhancing their understanding of how the federal operations will be executed and how their planning efforts can be complementary.
