The Varicom Crisis-Ready Teams^TM solution provides a rapid, cost-effective means for companies to develop, validate and continually improve their crisis management capability.

At the backbone of the Crisis-Ready Teams solution set is Varicom's STX COMMANDER^TM simulation and planning tool. Using STX COMMANDER, our clients are able to test and refine existing plans, train team members on the proper execution of existing crisis management plans, allow teams to practice for a wide range of crises and develop new plans using the Varicom FastTRACK Capability Development(TM) methodolgy.

By using STX COMMANDER teams and planners can simulate a diverse collection of crises, ranging from pandemics to weather-related incidents as well as employee and product issues. And because of its flexible web-based design, STX COMMANDER can be used in real- or non-real time to engage geographically dispersed team members in numerous simulated crises over an accelerated time frame and for a fraction of the cost likely with traditional techniques.
