– DHS Systems LLC displayed its new mobile incident command post at the National Guard Bureau Joint Information Technology Conference at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort in Orlando, Florida on December 7-9, 2009.

The Reeves Incident Command Post (ICP) Trailer is a unique trailer and shelter combination that can be fully outfitted as an incident command post complete with interoperable communications equipment for Guardsmen to deploy following a natural or manmade disaster. 

Though introduced just last year, the ICP has garnered attention from U.S. military personnel across the country. Most recently, in August, Joint Task Force Civil Support (JTF-CS) purchased the incident command post to be used as part of their command efforts.

“The ICP provides flexibility and a wide range of capabilities. It can be easily towed, allowing JTF-CS to use the command center for any mission, no matter its location,” says Jeff Jackson, Vice President of Business Development at DHS Systems.

With a starting weight of less than 3,000 pounds, the ICP’s lightweight, aerodynamic design can easily be towed behind most vehicles, allowing for travel off road. The ICP also features better gas mileage than larger command trailers and buses and requires little storage space.

The Reeves ICP shelter design, which has been tested to withstand gusts of wind up to 65 mph, as well as free falling and blowing rain without intrusion of water, uses the same materials as DHS Systems’ Deployable Rapid Assembly Shelter (DRASH) that has been used extensively by the military for more than 20 years.

Additionally, the incident command post features multiple storage compartments, as well as a console that can hold communications equipment, from hand-held radios to Satellite dish technology.

The Reeves ICP was on display at booth 704 during the conference.
