1 -USAR and firefighting operations are carried by a tight 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** **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.
