FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ETC Simulation contracted by Institute for Safety
to deliver ADMS to Royal Netherlands Navy
Southampton, Pa., USA, June 27, 2013 - Environmental Tectonics Corporation's
(OTC Pink: ETCC) ("ETC" or the "Company") Simulation Division, located in
Orlando, Fla., has been awarded a contract from the Institute for Safety ("IFV")
to expand their Advanced Disaster Management Simulator ("ADMS") with port
incidents and simulation systems. The training systems and new scenario
capabilities are required by IFV to provide ADMS training support to the Royal
Netherlands Navy Fire Service.
ETC will deliver multiple portable ADMS Training Systems with adapted scenarios
to IFV. The system includes a port, emergency response vehicles and crews, fire
fighting boats, and CBRNE incidents. The ADMS systems will be used to provide
virtual reality based training and examination programs to military and civilian
staff, with ADMS having recently been certified by the National Fire Exam Bureau
to be used for qualification exams. IFV will provide instructor training and
technical support to the Navy.
Eric Didderen, Senior Trainer/Advisor at IFV, stated, "IFV is very pleased with
the acknowledgement by the Fire Service of the Royal Netherlands Navy for this
multi-year training support contract. We will work closely with Navy experts to
further develop the exercise simulations needed for training fire and rescue in
ports and on-board ships. The exercise scenarios also include a protesting crowd
at the port and suspicious packages. We are very happy with ADMS, as it is a
proven simulation platform that provides optimal scenario generating flexibility
in combination with high fidelity simulation at a level required to train and
test incident command."
IFV is a national center of expertise with four Academies including the Fire
Academy, Academy for Crisis Management, Emergency Medical Service Academy and
Academy for Leadership. Since 2001, IFV has trained thousands of emergency
responders and crisis management teams using ETC's ADMS.
