Methods and systems for organizing and conducting a computer-implemented simulation to support an exercise are disclosed. The method includes a processor receiving, via a first GUI prior to the simulation, configuration data representing at least: (a) organizational nodes, (b) organizational pathways, (c) interorganizational relationships, and (d) one or more first events that change the interorganizational relationships. The processor generates a framework of the simulation based on the configuration data, receives user input via a second GUI during a first period of time in the simulation to dynamically change the product flow allocation of the organizational pathways in response to the first events, determines one or more second events based on the user input to dynamically change the interorganizational relationships differently from the first events, and automatically updates the interorganizational relationships of the framework of the simulation in response to applying the second events in a second period of time following the first period of time.
