Module 8: Control Tables

  • Control tables are the foundation for implementing agency standards in the IQCS. Control tables serve numerous functions in the system. Control tables are used for the following:

    • Provide a place to establish and maintain all the business core data (positions, position criteria, course information, organization information, etc.) in the application.
    • Control tables eliminate redundant data entry by providing default values.
    • Contribute to data integrity within the application by providing uniformity and consistency of data entry.

    Once they are established, control tables serve to store and maintain data at the record level.

  • The Business Unit (or Agency) defines the agencies that are utilizing the IQCS application for their responder incident qualification management. Addition of an agency must be approved by the IQCSCMB, and in some situations the NWCG parent organization, prior to activation in the application. It is this record that is the foundation for all things associated to the agency (departments, organizational structure, organization-unit id relationship, business mapping, standards, responder qualification processing, etc.).  

    The permission access for this IQCS control table is set to a view-only access and may not be available to all roles. 

    INSTRUCTIONS – VIEWING BUSINESS UNIT CONTROL TABLE

    To view the table, follow the steps below.

    1. Navigate to Main Menu > Control Tables >  Foundation Tables >  Organization > Business Unit.
    2. Enter search parameters. 
    3. Select the Search button. 

    If changes to a relationship are needed, contact the IQCS agency lead of the agency organization. 

  • The agency Department (known as Organization) table is used to reflect the individual agency organizations that exists. This individual units are then used to create an agency organizational structure. 

    The permission access for this IQCS control table is set to a view-only access and may not be available to all roles. 

    INSTRUCTIONS - NAVIGATING TO THE AGENCY ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE TABLE

    To view the table, follow the steps below.

    1. Navigate to Navigate to Main Menu > Control Tables >  Foundation Tables >  Organization > Departments.
    2. Enter an agency SetID
    3. Select the Search button.
      • If there are greater then 300 organizations for the identified agency, only the first 300 will be returned. Narrow search parameters as needed. 
  • The agencies in the IQCS are built with their own specific and unique organizational structures. These structures are used to organize responders, provide security, and enforce standards.

    Organization trees start with an Agency ID (aka as a SetID: BLM00, FS000, or DOI00) to reflect the agency. Each agency organizational used the individual organizations to build an established hierarchy which reflect regions or states depending on the agency. All changes to the organizational structure must be reviewed and approved by the IQCS agency lead prior to ensure it meets the business need and standards. 

    A responder can only be assigned one organization code. If a responder is added to an organization that is not in the agencies organizational structure, it will not be viewable to users. 

    The permission access for this IQCS control table is set to a view-only access and may not be available to all roles.

    INSTRUCTIONS – VIEWING COMPETENCY TABLE

    To view the table, follow the steps below.

    1. Navigate to Control Tables > Common Definitions > Competencies > Competency Definitions.
    2. Search for or enter the position competency you want to view.
    3. The screen will identify the competency code, the description/title, rating model, competency category, description, competency type(s), and the Set ID(s) that can utilize (see) the competency per agency policy.

    COMPLEX COMPETENCIES

    Complex competencies represent instances where prerequisite experience and/or training is defined by more than one way to meet the requirement. Anytime there is an “or” statement on the qualification sheet in the prerequisite experience for a position, a complex prerequisite is built.

    When a responder meets one of these different options, he or she is awarded a special complex competency code to indicate that they have met the prerequisite experience to be considered for the next higher position at a Trainee status.

    All complex competency codes end with the suffix CPX (positions) or TPX (training). For example, the ATGS complex competency code is ATGSCPX. This does not mean responders with this code on their competencies page are qualified ATGSs; it indicates the responder meets the prerequisite experience should he or she decide to work toward becoming an ATGS in the future.

    The permission access for this IQCS control table is set to a view-only access.

    INSTRUCTIONS – VIEWING COMPLEX COMPETENCIES

    To view Complex Competencies, follow the steps below.

    4. Click the View All link in the blue Complex Groups bar to see the groups defined for the Set ID(s).
    5. The groups shown represent the possible combinations of position prerequisites defined by agency standard.
  • The Equivalency Table is used by the IQCS to determine equivalencies and reduce the need for course competencies to be manually added to the responder record.

    Consider that Course A is a training requirement for position X. In the Field Managers Course Guide, Course B has been identified as a course equivalency to Course A. With the implementation of the Equivalency Table, Course A is a valid replacement for the training requirement for position X and eliminates the need to manually award a competency for Course A to meet the requirement for position X.

    The responder's record will always indicate the course that was actually completed. You can use the lookup table to search for courses and determine their equivalencies.

    INSTRUCTIONS - NAVIGATING TO THE EQUIVALENCY TABLE

    To view the table, follow the steps below.

    1. Navigate to Control Tables > Common Definitions > Competencies > Comp/Course Equivalency View.
    2. Search for or enter the competency and/or course code.
    3. If an equivalency has been created, the table will be displayed.

    You can use the key below to help decipher the information in the table.

    • Competency and/or Course Code (header): the code that was searched and selected.
    • Data Type (header): C = Competency, T = Training.
    • Comp or Course: the code that was searched and selected.
    • Equivalent: the competency(ies) or course(s) that has been established as equivalent.
  • The Course Table holds the NWCG and All-Hazard training course list. Criteria applied to each course, such as curriculum, required instructor competencies, prerequisites and competencies, equipment, catalog information, and additional details, are defined in this table.

    The permission access for this IQCS control table is set to a view-only access.

    The NWCG Standards for Course Delivery, PMS 901-1, is the system of record for the NWCG listing in the Course Table. The IQCS receives guidance from the NWCG Incident and Position Standards Committee (IPSC), the IQCS Change Management Board (CMB) and IQCS Agency Leads regarding requests to add, change or remove courses.

    Information on the Course Table is brought forward to the Course Session.

    INSTRUCTIONS – VIEWING COURSE TABLE

    To view the table, follow the steps below.

    1. Navigate to Training Administration > Course Details > Courses.
    2. Select Search to see a list of the courses or enter the course code in the Course Code field.
    3. Select the Course Code link for the desired course.
    4. The Course page will display.

    ADDING COURSES TO THE COURSE CATALOG

    Course are added per addition to source standards (example: NWCG Training Catalog), IQCS agency lead approval or IQCSCMB approval.  

    The best place to start with requesting a course be added for incident qualification management is with your IQCS agency lead. They will be able to answer any questions, determine level of utilization (NWCG versus national versus agency-specific), the qualification for the requirement, and decide to support or not. 

    For a non-NWCG course to be added, the request to add needs to go through an agency-specific approval process or the IQCS Change Management Board (IQCSCMB) approval process. The agency lead (for single agency use) or IQCSCMB agency leads (for multi-agency use) will review the request and make a decision. If approved, they will direct IQCS staff to set up the course in the control table and add it as a qualification requirement for the identified position qualification(s). 

    Because there is information needed about a course to populate the course control table fields in the application, you will need to complete a course request form. Your agency leads will be able to provide that form to you. 

    If the course is to remain agency-specific (example: BIA, BLM, USFS, etc.) only then the IQCS agency lead will assign the next course code from their agency-specific course number block (example: BI-200, BL-300, FS-500, etc.). For a national multi-agency course, the CMB will assign the next available course number from the CMB N9000 block.
