• CFA has provided a view on the core service delivery process that runs through the organisation.
• A risk based service delivery model allows us to understand what component processes need to be considered.
• Community capability development and exercise / simulation with communities are focal components of BFPP2

Community capability development - Maturity model
Level 1
Capability Maturity Levels
Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5
• Shift of focus from planning to influencing the individuals intention to act.
• Each precinct will have different capability requirements, however there will be a generic set of ‘core capabilities’ that need to be developed across all precincts.
• As an individual or household moves through this process they are more likely to behave in a rational manner in an emergency situation, because they are more prepared (levels 1 – 4) and response ready (level 5).
• The more mature the level of capability for an individual or household, the greater the level of engagement and behavioural conditioning the State (and its agencies) can expect to have achieved.
