Pre-plans Aniline ERR
ABOUT US
Our team leads in the innovation of fire service pre-plans, providing state-of-the-art resources for fire companies across Delaware and Pennsylvania. Our team is comprised of 4 firefighters who specialize in emergency services mapping and pre-incident planning, as well as firefighter education.
Aniline was created in late 2019 as a resource for fire departments that lacked the resources to properly map and pre-plan high-hazard occupancies in their jurisdiction. Since then, we have formatted and published structural pre-plans for over 45 million square feet of commercial, multi-residential, and industrial occupancies. The information we aggregate, organize and publish has been used on a daily basis since 2021, providing fire companies with an upper hand within the jurisdictions they serve.
DISCIPLINE
Aniline keeps a 1-on-1 relationship with each fire department we work with and each team member operates in emergency services every week. Our funding is provided by fire department budgets, emergency management budgets, and private companies that sponsor pre-plans for emergency services.
INNOVATION
The partnership we have with 24 departments has formed an organic network of innovation, information sharing, and relationships. Our first pre-plan 5 years ago looks foreign to our current standard thanks to countless suggestions and input from hundreds of firefighters.
INVESTING IN TRAINING
Our team has reinvested in fire department training and firefighter education, providing fire departments with open access to our incident command training unit. This training unit provides incident commanders the opportunity to utilize Structural Pre-Plans under pressure, and for firefighters to understand what information is valuable to the incident commander.
