This is an Implementation Guide developed under ESTCP project, "Integrated Research Management Team Supporting SERDP/DoD Wildland Fire Science Initiative". The Integrated Research Management Team Implementation Guide serves as a guide for anyone interested in the concept, use, or development of an Integrated Research Management Team to support collaborative research. It provides historical context, purpose, goals, objectives, planning processes, responsibilities, advantages of IRMT utilization, and example documents/templates that have been successfully used to support inter-project collaboration, safety, planning, host unit interactions, and overall operations on multi-project collaborative live-fire research campaigns.
