Crisis Management Team (CMT)

 Definition(s):

A group of individuals responsible for developing and implementing a comprehensive plan for responding to a disruptive incident. The team consists of a core group of decision-makers trained in incident management and prepared to respond to any situation. BCI Editor’s Note: In most countries, crisis and incident are used interchangeably but in the UK the term crisis has traditionally been used for wide-area incidents involving emergency services. However the recent UK Government sponsored PAS200 document seeks to extend the use of this term beyond the public sector.
