The emphasis of the Emergency Plan within PACE is primarily on supporting the overall strategy and ensuring that all responders can function effectively in emergencies. The concept of PACE (Primary, Alternate, Contingency, and Emergency) is designed to provide a structured approach to planning and resource management during an incident.

In this context, while firefighter survival is critically important, the Emergency Plan is not focused solely on that aspect. Instead, it integrates multiple layers of planning, facilitating communication and coordination among various agencies, and aligning efforts to ensure more comprehensive safety and operational effectiveness. Therefore, the true purpose of the Emergency Plan is to support the overall response strategy rather than concentrating exclusively on individual survival, which may lead to overlooking other crucial components of an emergency response.
