Utility service

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The supply service (VersDi) was a disaster control service (Fachdienst IX) in Germany in accordance with the federal government. In essence, it served the maintenance of operational resources and (operational) logistics. According to the law on the reorganization of civil protection (ZSNeuOG), this concept for the supply service is no longer defined by the federal government. There are individual country-specific concepts for corresponding disaster control units, such as parts of district fire brigade readiness . At the federal level, the logistics specialist groups of the technical relief organization represent successor units.
