Exercise Builder will provide you with a step-by-step process that generates the required documents needed for an Exercise Plan. See Screen Shots 1 and 2.

Specific site and ERO information can be stored to be used on multiple Exercise Plans. See Screen Shots 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Possible exercise objectives are suggested based on scenario type and exercise participants selected. See Screen Shots 7 and 8.

Exercise objectives are fully customizable to add new objectives. See Screen Shots 9 and 10.

A MSEL can be automatically generated when time assignments are added to response steps. See Screen Shots 11 and 12.

Exercise messages are dynamically generated as the MSEL is revised. See Screen Shots 13, 14, 15 and 16.

Controller Directories are generated based on message addressees. See Screen Shots 17 and 18.
