ScenPro has extensive expertise in modeling, simulation, and training, specializing in the areas of CBRN Incident Modeling and Simulation, and Virtual Training.
CBRN Incident Modeling and Simulation
ScenPro’s close association with military and civilian first responder personnel contributes to our expertise in CBRN incident modeling and simulation. In 1996, ScenPro worked with the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) collaborating with both industry and academic partners on developing CBRN incident response tools. As part of this effort, ScenPro worked closely with the Disaster Control Group (DCG) at Langley Air Force Base to develop exercises.
ScenPro used the Langley DCG task list and the national Incident Command System structure to develop a software application with a Graphical Information System (GIS)-based user interface. The GIS-based interface enabled first responders to quickly develop a graphical representation of the incident. The software application tracked the progress of the response effort, based on an expected response timeline.
The product also included a required medical resource estimation capability derived from ScenPro’s work on the Nuclear Biological Chemical Casualty Resource Estimation Support Tool (NBC CREST).
ScenPro received funding through Small Business Innovation Research contracts to develop a Chemical/Biological Incident Response Tool (CBIRT) for the Air Force Research Laboratory.
CBIRT also included a required medical resource estimation capability derived from ScenPro’s work on the Nuclear Biological Chemical Casualty Resource Estimation Support Tool (NBC CREST).
Additional funding from Small Business Technology Transfer contracts enabled ScenPro to develop a CBRN attack effects model for a generic air force base. ScenPro later adapted the user interface concept from this project for a major Department of Defense (DOD) program of record.
ScenPro has been involved with the development of NBC CREST for the Army Office of the Surgeon General (OTSG) since 1999. We developed modeling and simulation components that estimate the required medical resources to treat CBRN patients. These components compare the required medical resources to the ones nationally available to networks of medical treatment facilities and predict patient outcomes. For this development effort, ScenPro used and extended the Time-Task-Treater files generated by the Defense Medical Standardization Board.
The ongoing development effort for OTSG continues to enhance ScenPro’s experience in CBRN modeling and simulation. Our expertise with both operational and medical aspects of CBRN modeling and simulation is one of ScenPro’s major strengths and capabilities.
