These orders can be throughout the city and may not be organised in an area-based pattern. This is the standard requirement for basic operations. In situations when orders cannot be completed by using the day-to-day and normal operations process. Specialist operations orders will need to be created. There will usually be a requirement to source specialist equipment or additional resources.
