Modelling and Simulation
Our Modelling and Simulation team provides a range of services to support capability and decision-support problems. The modelling and simulation team use a range of tools tailored to answer different types of problems. They will use the most appropriate tools to suit the problem based on the level of fidelity of analysis needed, the data, and time available.

Experience
The Modelling and Simulation team comes from a diverse background supporting data driven analysis and visualisation to the development of games. We have used the simplest of tools from the Microsoft Office suite, through to proprietary SPA tools. Once we have understood the problem space the team works through an analysis plan understanding the catalogue of M&S tools that may be available and align with security requirements of the analysis as appropriate.
