DMP = D + M + P
DMP is an initialism whose letters stand for multiple words (e.g., Disaster Management Plan); the letters themselves do not transparently convey meaning to learners.
Etymology
DMP here stands for Disaster, Management, Plan; 'disaster' is a big emergency and a 'plan' is a set of steps, so a DMP is a written guide that tells people what to do before, during, and after a disaster.
