Explanation:

The National Incident Management System (NIMS) establishes good practices to adopt during an emergency.

One of the elements of this system is that common terminology be used between existing facilities and emergency response bodies such as the police, emergency medical personnel etc. This is to ensure that communication is clear and easily understood without getting confused by industry specific terminology.
