CALM stands for Change Adaptation Learning Model, an advanced organizational change management methodology developed by Dr. David J. Koehn who is the Chief Learning Officer of CACI’s National Solution Group: "We have implemented the CALM model as a decision support software application using DecisionPath’s ForeTell-DSS platform. ForeTell provides an innovative scenario-based “what-if” simulation capability. Consultants schooled in CALM use the software to project and analyze the likely consequences of candidate change strategies for client organizations within alternate scenarios of the future.

Clients can thus practice how best to enable change, and apply the lessons learned from these low-cost “dry runs” to validate and refine plans." Change Adaptation Learning Model
