Facilitated discrete event simulation has emerged as an alternative to simulation studies in a “hard” mode, fostering comprehension and learning of the real system using a simple and quicker computer model. FaMoSim – short for Facilitated Modeling Simulation – is a facilitated modeling framework developed to support online simulation projects, incorporating tools and guides in online facilitated workshops. The FaMoSim framework is divided into four phases: Kickoff Meeting, Conceptual Modeling, Computer Modeling and Feedback. Each stage is characterized by its distinct goals, a series of tasks to be carried out, expected outcomes and tools designed to support the process. This paper describes the FaMoSim framework, its application tools and a comparison of two applications of the framework in different industrial processes and concludes by offering some guidance for prospective users. With these applications, the obtained result was highly significant, as successful outcomes were achieved in all applications presented in this paper.
