Which ICS function is responsible for documentation for mutual aid agreements?

The Finance/Administration function in the Incident Command System (ICS) is responsible for tracking and managing all financial aspects of an incident, which includes maintaining documentation for mutual aid agreements. Mutual aid agreements outline the terms and conditions under which assistance is provided, including any financial implications, resource allocation, and reimbursement processes. Accurate documentation is crucial for accountability and ensuring that all parties adhere to the agreements made.

This function plays a vital role in ensuring that costs associated with providing or receiving mutual aid are recorded, expenses are managed effectively, and reimbursements are processed according to the agreements. Keeping comprehensive records helps in post-incident analyses and in addressing any discrepancies that may arise regarding resource sharing and funding during incidents.
