C3 Updates Active Shooter Checklist to Version 3.0

Active Shooter Incident Management Checklist

Rev 3.0 Jul 2019

ASIM Checklist version 3.0 simplifies Incident Command transitions for Law Enforcement, fully implements the “I Love U Guys” Standard Reunification Method and adopts Bomb Cover and Bomb Go IED terminology.

C3 Pathways is pleased to announce the public release of Revision 3.0 Jul 2019 of its validated Active Shooter Incident Management Checklist for use in managing Law Enforcement | Fire | EMS response to Active Shooter Events.

ASIM Checklist version 3.0 simplifies Incident Command transitions for Law Enforcement, fully implements the “I Love U Guys” Standard Reunification Method (SRM) and adopts Bomb Cover and Bomb Go IED terminology.

Critical to this update is the elimination of law enforcement changing radio callsigns from Command to Contact 1 or Tactical in the initial arrival sequence. Notable changes include the addition of a full Reunification sub checklist and combining all common practices into a Multi-Discipline subchecklist.

The changes have been tested and validated through exercises and best practices. Accompanying the updated Checklist is a full update of the Checklist Help Guide to Revision 3.0. Changes are listed below and may also be found in the ASIM Checklist Help Guide Revision History.

The ASIM Checklist phone app now has a one-time quick registration form that automates handling of Copyright permission for usage.
