This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the operational decision-making process in search and rescue activities at the Bandung Class A Search and Rescue Office. This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were obtained from a key informant directly involved in SAR operations and supported by SAR operational documents from 2024–2025. Data analysis was conducted through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results indicate that SAR operational decision-making is influenced by the interaction between operational conditions, information and communication, resources, inter-organizational coordination, and rescuer safety considerations. Operational decisions are adjusted according to changes in field conditions, information updates, resource capabilities, and risk evaluations during operations. This study concludes that SAR operational decision-making is a dynamic process that does not solely depend on technical procedures but also on personnel capability in understanding situations, managing information, and adapting actions to changing operational conditions
