It is crucial to determine as accurately as possible:
The context
Define possible scenarios and consequences
The needs generated
Available internal capacity and resources
Available external capacity and resources
Complementary capabilities and resources required for
meeting those needs

Establish a list and specification of programs and support
items required for an emergency response.
Identify sourcing options: donation, purchasing, loan…
Knowledge of national, regional, international market
(availability, cost, delivery time…)
Have standard purchase contract established and adapted
already prepared. Ensure that the tendering/quotes process is
adapted
Knowledge of majors donors guidelines for procurement. Be
familiar with donor exceptions for emergency contexts.

Be aware of customs procedures and regulations for
importing goods.
Have a good freight forwarder, customs clearing agent or
someone who understands customs regulations to help ease
the customs process.
Check the possibility of a tax exemption. Do you have the
relevant documentation required if goods need to be
imported?
Check if some goods are prohibited or restricted (for example,
communications equipment often needs licenses, some drugs
might be banned)

Define your possible transport requirements for personnel and
the movement of supplies.
Consider all transport modes, also establish alternative options.
Assess the number of vehicles (type, condition) that could be
available. Evaluate your potential additional requirement
Assess your sourcing options to meet your requirements (for
example, renting, local or international purchase, loan).
In case of significant increase in the fleet size, assess the
capacity to scale-up maintenance. Check what the supply of
spare parts and fuel is. Consider having contingency stocks.

Actions are taken in anticipation of an emergency to ensure a rapid, effective, and appropriate response. This includes assessing supply chain needs, preparing transport and customs procedures, procurement, warehousing, and distribution. Elements of preparedness involve translating context, understanding internal and external capacities, identifying potential scenarios, and defining needs. Steps include establishing lists of programs and support items, sourcing options, knowing customs regulations, and assessing local infrastructure capacity.
