SOCRAM is a simulation model that uses the eleven Force Planning Scenarios to generate the demand for operational assets. In a simulation run of the model operational assets are demanded when a scenario is activated and several scenarios can be activated concurrently. The scenario activation rates are based on historical records of CF [Canadian Forces] operations with an emphasis placed on the 1990s. The output of the model is a series of risk assessments where risk is defined as the probability of having an insufficient amount of operational assets. If the Force Planning Scenarios are prioritised or weighted then the consequences of this risk can be determined. 1, record 1, English, - Scenario%20Operational%20Capability%20Risk%20Assessment%20Model

SOCRAM est un modèle de simulation qui utilise les onze scénarios de planification des forces afin de déterminer le niveau de la demande opérationnelle globale. Durant un exercice de simulation, les ressources opérationnelles exigées pour un scénario donné sont sélectionnées; plusieurs scénarios peuvent être analysés concurremment. La cadence de lancement des scénarios est basée sur les données historiques des opérations exécutées par les FC [Forces canadiennes] avec un accent mis les années 90. Le résultat du modèle est une série d’évaluations des risques où le risque est défini comme la probabilité d’avoir une quantité insuffisante de ressources opérationnelles. Si les scénarios de planification sont assignés un niveau de priorité ou un poids donné, alors les conséquences de ce risque peuvent être déterminées. 1, record 1, French, - mod%C3%A8le%20d%27%C3%A9valuation%20des%20risques%20li%C3%A9s%20aux%20capacit%C3%A9s%20op%C3%A9rationnelles%20des%20sc%C3%A9narios
