El SCI es un modelo de gestión desarrollado para comando, control y coordinación de la respuesta a una situación de emergencia y su objetivo es estabilizar el incidente y proteger la vida, la propiedad y el medioambiente. Este se basa en algunos principios que permiten el despliegue rápido, coordinado y efectivo de los recursos, disminuyendo las posibilidades de que las organizaciones que responden vean afectadas sus políticas y procedimientos operativos propios durante la respuesta a incidentes. 3, record 1, Spanish, - sistema%20de%20mando%20de%20incidentes
