The MFRP does not merely provide direction for the adequate mass handling and/or disposal of bodies. On the contrary, the plan describes operational practices, the supporting financial, administrative and logistical systems that allows for the professional and dignified search for, recovery, examination, identification, storage and return of bodies to the families for burial. All these steps should be generating standardized documentation which contains important information that should be protected and centralized to support not only investigative aspects of case management, but it is also required for planning, operations, logistics, administration and finance, and reporting. It also describes policies and procedures in relation to managing unclaimed and unidentified bodies, documentation of identification features for future comparison, and their temporary disposition. All these phases require a thorough understanding of existing capacities, capabilities, and prior acknowledgement of the gaps where solutions are needed.
