The DoD Modeling & Simulation Coordination Office (M&SCO) is the catalyst organization for Department of Defense (DoD) modeling and simulation (M&S) and ensures that M&S technology development is consistent with other related initiatives. DoD M&S Catalog
In addition, The tools team advises the Modeling and Simulation Coordination Office (M&SCO) Director on all modeling and simulation matters pertaining to the development, management, and use of tools and data used in creation and execution of simulated environments and the analysis of the simulation results. The Tools team also formulates and oversees the implementation of DoD-wide M&S plans and guidelines in the areas of M&S tools and data development and management. In addition, Tools evaluates the DoD Community and Component M&S tools and data development projects and initiatives. In addition, M&SCO Tools represents the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) / Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (AT&L) in its various relations with industries, universities, other government agencies, and international and foreign organizations on matters pertinent to M&S tools and data.
M&SCO Tools has a set of software that assists M&S users and developers across the DoD Enterprise. The tools are divided into three categories: Visibility, Standards, and Management.
Visibility Tool
The DoD M&S Catalog is a web-based discovery service enabling visibility into the resources available across the DoD M&S Enterprise to support the user of models and simulations search for the tools, data, and services to meet their requirements.
The DoD M&S Catalog is located here.
Standards Tools
The DoD Standards Vetting Tool (DSVT) is intended to Nominate, Evaluate and Advocate, and its primary purpose is to provide a cohesive environment and information system that could be utilized by all DoD M&S standards projects.
The DoD Standards Vetting Tool (DSVT) is located here.
The DoD VV&A Documentation Tool (DVDT) was developed to automate a set of standard templates based on Military Standard 3022 (MIL-STD-3022). These templates are the four core products of the M&S VV&A processes: Accreditation Plan, V&V Plan, V&V Report, and Accreditation Report.
