Train Your EOC Team for Any Disaster
SimEOC is a web-based virtual Emergency Operations Center simulation platform for functional exercise training, research, and education. Build, run, and evaluate realistic EOC exercises — entirely online.
Built for Functional Exercises
A Functional Exercise (FE) tests the capability of an Emergency Operations Center to respond to a simulated emergency event. SimEOC brings that experience online — fully configurable, repeatable, and measurable.
- Create unlimited injects with timed delivery, priority levels, media attachments, and targeted role assignment. Design realistic message flows that mirror real EOC operations.
- Build complete functional exercises from scratch or start from a reusable template. Set scenario parameters, assign roles, schedule injects, and define evaluation criteria.
- Configure distinct roles — Administrator, Exercise Developer, Controller, Evaluator, and Trainee — each with permissions tailored to their function in the exercise.
Real-World EOC Simulation
SimEOC replicates the communication flows, resource requests, and decision-making demands of a live EOC activation. Trainees experience realistic pressure in a safe, controlled environment.
- Controllers manage the exercise in real time — inject status, participant activity, and scenario state are visible on a unified control dashboard.
- Every action, message, and decision is logged. Generate after-action reports automatically and review performance by trainee, role, or inject category.
- Replay any completed exercise from the evaluator's or trainee's perspective to support debriefs, identify gaps, and document lessons learned.
Everything Your EOC Training Needs
SimEOC combines exercise design, role management, live simulation, and after-action review in one integrated platform — purpose-built for emergency management professionals.
Inject Management
Create and manage unlimited injects with customizable delivery options, priority levels, attachments, and multi-role targeting.
Exercise Builder
Build, clone, and reuse fully configured functional exercises. Template exercises save time and ensure consistency across training cycles.
Role-Based Users
Assign Administrators, Exercise Developers, Controllers, Evaluators, and Trainees — each with the exact access they need.
After-Action Reports
Full exercise logs, evaluator notes, and trainee response timelines auto-generated at exercise close for immediate debrief use.
Secure Organization Spaces
Each organization gets a private, password-protected workspace with isolated exercises, users, and data. No cross-tenant exposure.
Template Exercises
Start from a pre-built scenario — hurricane response, mass casualty, infrastructure failure — and customize to your jurisdiction's needs.
Who Uses SimEOC
Built for the Emergency Management Community
SimEOC serves EOC agencies, academic researchers, and educators who need a rigorous, flexible, and realistic exercise environment.
SimEOC let us run a full functional hurricane response exercise with our entire county EOC team without leaving the office. The inject sequencing and after-action report were exactly what we needed for our HSEEP-compliant training cycle.
Maria Delgado
Emergency Management Coordinator, Coastal County EOC
We used SimEOC as the research platform for our NSF-funded study on EOC communication patterns during simulated mass-casualty events. The complete exercise log made quantitative analysis straightforward.
Dr. James Okafor
Associate Professor, Emergency Management, State University
My students had never worked in an EOC before. SimEOC gave them a realistic environment to practice coordination, resource requests, and decision-making under time pressure — all within a single class session.
Prof. Sandra Reyes
Emergency Management Program, Community College
Setting up our first exercise took less than an hour. The template exercises gave us a solid starting point, and customizing injects for our specific hazard scenario was intuitive.
Kevin Marsh
Training Officer, Regional Emergency Management Agency
The role-based access control is exactly right for our exercises. Controllers see everything, evaluators have their own view, and trainees only see what they're supposed to see. No workarounds needed.
Lt. Priya Nair
Fire Department, Incident Management Team
After-action reports used to take us days to compile. SimEOC generates them automatically at exercise close — complete with timestamps, inject responses, and evaluator notes. It changed our debrief workflow entirely.
Thomas Wright
Director of Training, State Emergency Management Division
We integrated SimEOC into our graduate emergency management curriculum and it transformed how students understand the pressure of real EOC coordination. The replay feature is invaluable for post-exercise debriefs.
Dr. Angela Foster
Program Director, Emergency Management, Metropolitan University
The multi-role access model is exactly what we needed for joint exercises between our county and municipal EOCs. Everyone had the right view without any custom configuration on our end.

Emergency Services Coordinator, Tri-County Region
