1		-USAR and firefighting operations are carried out by a mix of professionals and trained volunteers who work long shifts under high risk and high tempo. Structures differ across Europe (national fire services, civil protection agencies like THW, mixed volunteer/pro units), but field reality is consistent: clear command, sector/task discipline, and pragmatic “get it done” culture. In SYNERGISE we focus first on people who directly touch the technology or whose decisions depend on it. That includes emerging roles (drone pilot, sensor/video analyst, C4I home base operator, information analyst) alongside classic USAR roles (team lead, squad lead, paramedic, search/rescue tech). Interviews repeatedly stressed: don’t make the same person both “set up” and “go in”; treat setup time as an investment only if it clearly pays back in safety, speed, or certainty later; and keep prep at BoO** **(Base Of Operations) with just-in-time activation at the worksite. New tech must fit rhythms already in use (USAR vs. Fire tempo), respect national certification (e.g., drone licensing), and be configurable to local doctrine while sharing a common core.
	1	+Direct stakeholders interact directly with developed technologies. The tables below shows relevant stakeholders in Synergise, divided in general stakeholders and first responders. When we describe how these stakeholders collaborate with technologies, we may also refer to them as //actors. //

	15	+In Synergise, we distinguish between two First Responder departments: Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) and Fire Department (FD). These two department work closely together during an incident. At the end of the overview, some new actors are identified that do not currently exist, but that will need to be included when new technologies are introduced.

46		-**Split control & analysis.** Robots work best with a distinct **Pilot** and **Analyst**; and a specific **Overview** role when multiple robots run. Design implication: default to separate UI profiles and explicit handovers; shared annotations sync by default.
47		-
48		-**Set up or go in.** Frontline shouldn’t run complex tech during entry. Design implication: shift setup to BoO or staging; enable just-in-time activation at the worksite; minimize attach/remove steps.
49		-
50		-**Investment, not sacrifice.** Startup costs must pay back in later speed/safety. Design implication: show expected payoff (e.g., saved search time) and keep setup under a known ceiling.
51		-
52		-**Answers over feeds.** Leaders want decisions and routes, not raw sensor firehoses. Design implication: analyst tools publish //recommendations// with provenance; commanders get roll-ups and “what changed.”
53		-
54		-**Graceful degradation.** Networks fail; work continues. Design implication: offline-first, store-and-forward, mesh hints, on-device caching; visible confidence and data age.
55		-
56		-**Role-based privacy.** Health and video data need scoped visibility. Design implication: strict role views, consent/ack flows, redaction by default on exports.
