LCISD WEB based emergency opertions plans

Visual Imagry Inc. (VI) was awarded the contract to provide the Lamar County Independent School District (LCISD) with a “turn-key”* web-based comprehensive management system to support the District’s Emergency Operations Program and to enhance the maintenance and development and annual updates for each schools’ Emergency Operations Plan (EOP).

As of October 2010, thirty-two schools EOPs and five of the District's Annex plans are now easily accessible via the web-based system. The Texas School District can now easily store and maintain all EOPs, Communications Plans, Pandemic Flu plans as well as provide a roll up view for authorized users from all schools.

The flexibility of VIPlanning© Software & Online Services allows the LCISD to create and maintain automated EOPs that align exactly with the EOP Table of Contents within the original hard-copy of the EOP.

This web-based (HTML) solution supports the required standards including the Government Performance and Results Act and the Texas Unified School Safety Standards.

VI created 32 web based Emergency Operations Plans (EPOs) and 5 Annex Plans were between February and October 2010. The EOPs totaled more than 3,500 web pages and more than 675 additional web pages were developed for Annexes.

Lamar Junior High was selected as the Model web-based EOP. The Model EOP was designed to create the over-all look and assure consistency in navigation-bar outline for all schools. The goal was to maintain the same information across all schools EOPs. Also a Master web-based Plan was created at the District level, thus allowing linking to data across all 32 school EOP plans.
