SimsUShare - Easy & Rapid Fire Simulation Building Software

Fire/Rescue Departments

Fire/Rescue Departments need to train their responders–from firefighter through Chief Officer–on realistic situations that have happened or could happen in their jurisdiction. SimsUshare is an effective and proven education and training platform for Fire & Rescue Departments to create and deploy simulations that reflect real-life and potential incidents. SimsUshare is also an effective platform for continuing education, promotional processes, validation of SOG’s and/or policies.

SimsUshare is easy to use. Anyone can create a wide variety of scenarios to develop, maintain and enhance real-world skills, especially for the potential incidents that ‘keep you up at night.’ Since it is easy to use and affordable, you can have people throughout your organization develop simulations to contribute their experience, thereby avoiding the bottleneck associated with typical simulation software that requires specialized study or only the ‘tech guy’ who knows how to make sims.

Typical Uses

Create scenarios for virtually anything you can imagine, using your photos, from simple, first alarm incidents to complex, battalion level incidents, with timed changes of hazard conditions. Customers may have only 1 or 2 simulation developers, while others have outfitted/equipped all their apparatus, stations, and command vehicles to create simulations on the go. Because the viewer/player is free, it is easy to distribute simulations for training department-wide. Furthermore, customers are using SimsUshare to develop and enhance interoperability and mutual-aid with industrial, commercial, and public sector organizations in their jurisdiction, including schools and hospitals.

SimsUshare can be used at the kitchen table, at the training center and training ground, and anywhere else. SimsUshare allows you to conduct multi-company training from separate locations. This allows you to keep your crews in district, thereby reducing costs and backfill requirements through the (included) Command Training Center (CTC) functionality.

SimsUshare has unlimited uses and benefits such as:

Pre-incident planning
Size-up skills
Communication skills
Strategy & tactics
Post-incident critique/lessons learned
Promotion and ‘acting officer’ qualification

Critical thinking & situational awareness
Personnel accountability
ICS / deployment
SOP/SOG validation and compliance
Apparatus placement
Equipment training, e.g., PPV and Pump Operations

What a great product. I have used it a few times and it was very easy to use, but also very powerful!

Exceptional Training App Had the opportunity to review earlier versions of this app. It was great then and better now. Easy to use. Great options and interoperability. Superb functions and options. Importing your own fotos is where the app becomes relevant and dynamic. Try it…you’ll like it

This software has been a great tool in educating my crews during downtime and during multi-company training. Keep up the great work.

I wanted to tell you how much [SimsUshare] has helped me with training of captain candidates. I just finished teaching a strategy and tactics class for my department, and it was a valuable tool.

I train people in fire and emergencies here in Australia and your app has been a godsend. As most of my training is on site and site specific they love it when I “burn’ their building down, or even better, blow it up. The new elements you keep adding make it real for simulated scenarios and assessing what people would and can do in the emergency situations SimsUshare can create. Mate, your imagination is your limit, and I would recommend this app to any emergency organisation for scenario based training. Believe it or not, I even saw a headline news fire on TV about 6 months ago where I am sure they used this program to simulate the fire, there you go, it looked so real.

The main SimsUshare development tool for creating simulations is called SimsUshare Platinum. SimsUshare Platinum is available for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. The same license you buy works on any platform. However, you must purchase SimsUshare for iOS (iPhone/iPad) or SimsUshare for Android from the App Store (for iOS) and Google Play (for Android), respectively. The app costs a one-time fee of US $9.99, which allows you to create or edit any five (5) simulations at a time, and play any number of sims you load.
