  1. A chronological list of all of the simulated events together with the actions that are expected from the participants at each of them
  2. A summary of the most recent real incident that the organisation itself has faced, written up for each one of the participants to work their way through
  3. A set of pre-scripted messages that are delivered to each one of the participants at intervals during the course of the whole exercise
  4. A sequential narrative account of a hypothetical incident, written to provoke the responses that demonstrate the objectives
