There is no equivalent feature in TestComplete... yet. Feel free to suggest such a thing however, I don't think there's an analogous concept. In SoapUI you're testing API requests via Soap to different environments. TestComplete is functionally testing applications via their UI. For the most part, there' not really a new "environment". The application is installed on a machine and set up and run as normal. TestComplete then exercises the application and performs verifications. It doesn't really matter what "environment" the application is installed on, for the most part. Project level variables as typically used in TestComplete don't really correspond to environment factors. They are more on the lines of global scoped variables in an application that any function/method/object in the application has acccess to.

Thanks for the swift reply.
Because my client has multiple development versions in different QA environments at the same time, it is necessary to switch back and forth between them, and there are unique paths and credentials necessary for each version, so it would be handy to be able to change all necessary values in one go.
I'm just getting familiar with the product so maybe there is some way to accomplish this that I'm missing.

What I've done in the past is created an INI file with different environmental values. Then, using the Storages.INI object, I'd read those values in from the INI into the project variables... need to run under a different environment? Change the INI values or drop in a different file.

With another tool I've used a single variable to indicate the particular environment under test, then used that to select a .csv file containing the values needed. I wonder if I could do this with a DB Table variable using a script to change the file that is pointed to at run time?
