FEMA Strategic Plan 2014-2018
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Strategic Plan outlines five "Strategic Priorities" which intend to produce "16 Key Outcomes." From the Executive Summary: "The 2014-2018 FEMA Strategic Plan advances the Agency's mission to support our citizens and first responders to ensure that as a nation we work together to build, sustain, and improve our capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards. For 2014 to 2018, FEMA will focus on five strategic priorities, institutionalizing key improvements while building Agency capacity and strengthening national capabilities for disaster preparedness. The five priorities outlined below, along with their associated outcomes, will spur cross-Agency collaboration, guide allocation of resources, and inform how all FEMA employees approach their work. These efforts will further integrate two strategic imperatives into the Agency's programs and operations: a whole community approach to emergency management and a culture that fosters innovation and learning."

Mitigation Federal Interagency Operational Plan
From the Introduction: "President Obama signed Presidential Policy Directive (PPD)-8 in March 2011. PPD-8 is aimed at strengthening the security and resilience of the United States through systematic preparation for the threats that pose the greatest risk to the security of the Nation. PPD-8 defined five mission areas-- Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery--and directed the development of a series of policy and planning documents to enhance national preparedness. As part of this effort, PPD-8 required the development of a National Planning System to integrate planning across all levels of government and with the private and nonprofit sectors around key capabilities that can be mixed and matched, as needed, to provide an agile, flexible approach to prevent, protect, mitigate, respond, and recover. […] This FIOP [Federal Interagency Operational Plan] builds upon the National Mitigation Framework (NMF), which sets the strategy and doctrine for how the whole community builds, sustains, and delivers the Mitigation core capabilities identified in the National Preparedness Goal. This FIOP describes the concept of operations for integrating and synchronizing existing national-level Federal capabilities to support local, state, tribal, territorial, insular area, and Federal plans, and is supported by Federal department-level operational plans, where appropriate. […] The Mitigation FIOP describes how the Federal Government delivers core capabilities for the Mitigation mission area. The purpose of this FIOP is to establish a joint system for supporting local, state, tribal, territorial, and insular area partners and delivering public resources in a coordinated, effective, and proficient manner."

PPD-8 is aimed at strengthening the security and resilience of the United States through systematic preparation for the threats that pose the greatest risk to the security of the Nation. PPD-8 defined five mission areas--Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery--and directed the development of a series of policy and planning documents to enhance national preparedness.

[…] This FIOP [Federal Interagency Operational Plan] builds upon the National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF), which sets the strategy and doctrine for how the whole community builds, sustains, and delivers the Recovery core capabilities identified in the National Preparedness Goal. This FIOP describes the concept of operations for integrating and synchronizing existing national-level Federal capabilities to support local, state, tribal, territorial, insular area, and Federal plans, and is supported by Federal department-level operational plans, where appropriate. […] The Recovery FIOP describes how the Federal Government delivers core capabilities for the Recovery mission area. It is an all-hazards plan that provides guidance for the implementation of the NDRF. The mission of the Recovery FIOP is to provide guidance to enable more effective delivery of recovery support to disaster-impacted local, state, tribal, territorial, and insular area jurisdictions."

Response Federal Interagency Operational Plan
From the Introduction: "This FIOP [Federal Interagency Operational Plan] builds upon the National Response Framework (NRF), which sets the strategy and doctrine for how the whole community builds, sustains, and delivers the Response core capabilities identified in the National Preparedness Goal. This FIOP describes the concept of operations for integrating and synchronizing existing national-level Federal capabilities to support local, state, tribal, territorial, insular area, and Federal plans, and is supported by Federal department-level operational plans, where appropriate. The concept of operations and supporting tasks contained in the Response FIOP are scalable, flexible, and adaptable, allowing the FIOP to be used regardless of cause, size, location, or complexity. Concepts of operations and/or tasks may be modified, added, or deleted depending upon the incident. […] This FIOP describes how the Federal Government delivers core capabilities for the Response mission area. Specifically, the Response FIOP is an all-hazards plan that describes how the Federal Government, pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act) or other appropriate non-Stafford Act legal authority, supports local, state, tribal, territorial, and insular area efforts to save lives, protect property and the environment, and meet basic human needs following an emergency or disaster. The Response FIOP outlines delivery of Federal support to address the impacts of natural disasters or other emergencies."
