'G.A.T.E': Gap Analysis for TTX evaluation.
A Table Top Exercise (TTX) gap analysis was developed with the aim to provide a complete, systematic and objective evaluation of TTXs organized in safety and security fields. A TTX consists in a discussion-based emergency management exercise, organized in a simulated emergency , involving groups of players who are subjected to a set of solicitations ('injects'), in order to evaluate their emergency response abilities. This kind of exercise is devoted to identify strengths and shortfalls and to propose potential and promising changes in the approach to a particular situation. In order to manage the TTX derived data collection and analysis, a gap analysis tool would be very useful and functional at identifying the 'gap' between them and specific areas and actions for improvement, consisting the gap analysis in a comparison between actual performances and optimal/expected ones. In this context, a TTX gap analysis tool was designed, with the objective to provide an evaluation of Team players' competences and performances and TTX organization and structure. The influence of both the players' expertise and the reaction time (difference between expected time and time necessary to actually complete the injects) on the final evaluation of the inject responses was also taken into account.

The enables to identify the 'gap' between the given response to a specific inject and the expected response and to assign evaluations which can be translated in numerical assessment.
the Table Top Exercise (TTX) consists in a discussion-based one, composed of a tightened succession of numerous solicitations ('injects') addressed to the players by a Command and Operative Center (COC) [1, 2], aimed to test and evaluate plans, policies, and procedures (validation), to examine well-established procedures (testing), to highlight weaknesses and identify resource gaps (gap analysis), to improve individual and team performance, organizational communication and coordination, and to train personnel and clarify roles and responsibilities (
