32. Advantages of Using Unified Command One set of objectives is developed for the entire incident, and a collective approach is made to developing strategies. Information flow and coordination is improved between all jurisdictions and agencies involved in the incident. No agency’s authority or legal requirements will be compromised or neglected.

33. Advantages of Using Unified Command Each agency is fully aware of the plans, actions, and constraints of all others. The combined efforts of all agencies is optimized as they perform their respective assignments under a single Incident Action Plan. Duplicative efforts are reduced or eliminated, thus reducing cost and chances for frustration and conflict.
