Following its successful use in aviation training, CRM was identified as a potential safety improvement program for the fire services. Ted Putnam advocated for improved attention to human factors that contribute to accidents and near misses, building on CRM principles.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |last=Miller |first=Bill |date=2004-12-07 |title=Leaders We Would Like to Meet: Interview with Ted Putnam |url=https://www.nwcg.gov/sites/default/files/wfldp/docs/ted-putnam.pdf |access-date=2023-04-22 |website=Wildland Fire Leadership Development Program}}</ref> In 1995, Dr. Putnam organized the first Human Factors Workshop for wildland fire.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Putnam |first=Ted |date=November 1995 |orig-year=Updated July 1996 |title=Findings from the Wildland Firefighters Human Factors Workshop. 9551-2855-MTDC |url=https://www.fs.usda.gov/t-d/pubs/pdfpubs/pdf95512855/pdf95512855pt01.pdf |access-date=2023-04-21 |website=Rocky Mountain Research Station, USDA-USFS}}</ref><ref name=":2" /> Dr. Putnam also wrote a paper that applied CRM concepts to the violent deaths of 14 [[Wildland]] firefighters on the [[South Canyon Fire]] in Colorado.{{citation needed|date=January 2022|reason=BLP}}
