   SimPro OTS Solutions is a consulting firm dedicated to helping customers maximize the value of their Operator Training Simulator (OTS). Our goal is not to sell you something new, but to help you to make better use of what you have (or aid in the selection of the right simulator for your situation). Far too many simulators are under utilized or end up “gathering dust”. Rarely does the problem lie with the technology or with the trainers- but rather in building the bridge to help trainers understand where when and how to use the simulator effectively. My focus is on connecting those dots and making sure your simulator delivers the value you paid for.Available services include:Justification- Writing a compelling business case for your simulator program.Sourcing- Choosing the right simulator(s) for your needs.Planning- mapping simulator activities to the learning objectives in your curriculum.Implementation/Roll Out- First impressions matter! Early wins help drive future success.Exercise Development- Focus on critical thinking and process fundamentals- not simulator bells an whistles.Effective Troubleshooting- Ensure your operators have the foundational knowledge to troubleshoot proactively.Seminars/Workshops- Development workshops are available to sites and educational institutions.Competency Assurance/ Gap Analysis Program- With feedback loop to your simulator activities.
