The search for dark matter is one of the main science drivers of the particleand astroparticle physics communities. Determining the nature of dark matterwill require a broad approach, with a range of experiments pursuing differentexperimental hypotheses. Within this search program, collider experimentsprovide insights on dark matter which are complementary to direct/indirectdetection experiments and to astrophysical evidence. To compare results from awide variety of experiments, a common theoretical framework is required. TheATLAS and CMS experiments have adopted a set of simplified models whichintroduce two new particles, a dark matter particle and a mediator, and whoseinteraction strengths are set by the couplings of the mediator.  So far, the presentation of LHC and future hadron collider results hasfocused on four benchmark scenarios with specific coupling values within thesesimplified models. In this work, we describe ways to extend those fourbenchmark scenarios to arbitrary couplings, and release the corresponding codefor use in further studies. This will allow for more straightforward comparisonof collider searches to accelerator experiments that are sensitive to smallercouplings, such as those for the US Community Study on the Future of ParticlePhysics (Snowmass 2021), and will give a more complete picture of the couplingdependence of dark matter collider searches when compared to direct andindirect detection searches. By using semi-analytical methods to rescalecollider limits, we drastically reduce the computing resources needed relativeto traditional approaches based on the generation of additional simulatedsignal samples.
