Incident Management Handbook

USCG Mobile IMH brings the Coast Guard Incident Management Handbook to your tablet or phone — the full doctrine, the ICS-CG forms, the Planning P, and the role-based job aides your team uses every day, all in one place and fully offline.

Built for incident commanders, section chiefs, command staff, unit leaders, and partner-agency responders. Whether you're walking into a Tactics Meeting, building the next operational period, or working a Search and Rescue case from a cutter with no signal, the doctrine and the paperwork stay at your fingertips.

What's inside
• The full CG-IMH (COMDTPUB 3120, 2025 revision). 392 pages of doctrine — readable, searchable, with paragraph highlights and notes that persist across sessions.
• 30 ICS-CG forms — ICS-201 through ICS-235 and the IAP Cover Sheet. Fill natively in a SwiftUI form or directly inside the government AcroForm PDF, capture a signature on the screen, then send by Mail, AirPrint, or Share. Form data clears automatically the moment you send.
• Interactive Planning P. Tap any phase of the operational period planning cycle — Initial UC Meeting, IC/UC Objectives, Command & General Staff, Tactics Meeting, IAP Prep, Operations Briefing, Execute & Assess — and jump straight to the agenda, required attendees, inputs, outputs, duration, and form references.
• Twelve role-based Job Aides — IC, OSC, PSC, LO, PIO, SOFR, RESL, SITL, DMOB, DOCL, Chaplain, Area Command — bundled as searchable PDFs with prev/next navigation.
• Interactive ICS Org Chart from the standard NIMS hierarchy through the Air Operations Branch and every unit. Tap a position to read its responsibilities in the IMH.
• Ask the Handbook. Type a free-form question and the app composes a structured doctrine answer — agenda, attendees, inputs, outputs, forms, next steps — from the bundled content. On supported hardware, the response is augmented by an on-device language model. Nothing about your prompt ever leaves the device.
• Tactical utilities. A unit converter for pollution response volumes and route planning (length, mass, volume, speed, temperature, all conversions taken from the CG-IMH equivalents table). A meeting scheduler that pushes recurring briefings straight into your device's native Calendar.

Privacy and offline first
• 100% offline. No network calls from the form, search, or AI paths. Drop into airplane mode at a remote location and the app works exactly the same.
• No telemetry, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. Nothing about your use of the app is logged or transmitted.
• Incident form data is held in memory only and cleared automatically when you send a form, close it, or navigate away — no PII left on the device after the response is over.
• All AI inference runs on-device via Apple's Foundation Models framework. Your prompts, the structured context, and the model's response never leave your device.
