The tasking tool allows operations staff to create task
dossiers by grouping useful information for planning and monitoring a
task. The tasking tool includes
hazards to be addressed (that is, the
objective of the task) and
work items such as surveys, clearances, MREs and QCs. Any other related information can be included in the binder.
Depending on local standard operating procedures (SOPs), the tasking tool can be used to manage activities for one hazard or several hazards, or for monitoring a specific organisation that was tasked.
The tasking tool automatically retrieves data from the associated work items to produce statistics. This includes cleared area size, devices found and hours spent.
All the compiled information related to the specified task can be viewed and printed from the task manager or the Task Editor window.
