Group Support Systems (GSS) are increasingly present in different organizational configurations. One way to stimulate sustained use of a GSS is to consciously design recurring processes that support mission critical tasks. Based on this notion the first two phases of a crisis response process in one of the main harbors in the world were modeled and redefined in terms of thinkLets. This delivered a process design that was supported by a GSS. The aim of the project was to design and execute the situational awareness phase in a distributed fashion and to do it faster and more effective than the current same-time same-place process.
