CRMCS is a web-based tool launched in 2011 by Kansas Division of Emergency Management & partners, allowing personnel credentialing, asset tracking, and incident visibility. The system aligns with FEMA Tier I NIMS standards and state-specific Tier II types. It integrates with RMW and InterTRAX Exchange system for comprehensive resource management. Several Regional Homeland Security Councils have adopted accountability systems to align with NIMS, NFPA, and state goals, and CRMCS enhances these efforts statewide. SalamanderLive, a real-time tracking system, predicts incident needs.

CRMCS (Comprehensive Resource Management and Credentialing System) 10/5/16
CRMCS (Comprehensive Resource Management and Credentialing System) The Kansas Division of Emergency Management (KDEM), in partnership with the Kansas Homeland Security Regions, launched a new comprehensive resource management tool in September of 2011. This tool allows county emergency managers and emergency response agencies the ability to credential personnel, provide information on availability of assets and personnel during an emergency, the ability to track those assets on scene, and complete incident visibility via the internet. The resource information is collected and stored in the web based Resource Manager Web (RMW) / InterTRAX Exchange system. Resources in the RMW system will be typed by the FEMA Tier I NIMS standards. Assets that fall outside those standards will be identified and given state specific Tier II types as defined by the subject matter experts in the appropriate discipline / Emergency Support Function (ESF).
CRMCS (Comprehensive Resource Management and Credentialing System) • Several of the Regional Homeland Security Councils have implemented accountability and credentialing systems in accordance with NIMS, NFPA and the State Strategic Goals for homeland security. RMW builds upon these systems to provide the entire state of Kansas the opportunity to benefit from the capability. • SalamanderLive is a web based tracking system that allows those with appropriate permissions the ability to track, in near real time, the people and assets on scene at an incident. This will provide the opportunity to predict possible needs to effectively manage the incident.
