The Scottish Government Resilience Room (SGoRR) is the emergency and crisis response co–ordination facility of the Scottish Government that is activated in cases of national emergency or crisis, or during events abroad with major implications for Scotland and the wider British Isles. It is located in Scotland's capital city and seat of power, Edinburgh, at St Andrew's House, the official headquarters of the Scottish Government. Prior to February 2008, it was called the Scottish Government Emergency Room, or "SEER", from the former name "Scottish Executive Emergency Room".

When the extent or complexity of an emergency requires an stronger degree of central government co-ordination to support the co–ordination of the response, the Scottish Government will formally launch and activate its emergency response arrangements through the Scottish Government Resilience Room. The precise role of the facility will alter depending on the precise nature and matter of the emergency.[1] It is the Scottish equivalent of the United States' Situation Room in Washington, D.C., and the United Kingdom's Cabinet Office Briefing Rooms in Whitehall.
