• Operator Console desktop
• 'Single pane of glass' display across monitors plus a
touchscreen & stylus-enabled display sitting at the tabletop level
• Seamless interaction and interoperability across a wide range of applications

• Configurable role-based and user-based personalization of display layouts
• Retention of existing physical telephony with capability to migrate to soft client,

• Network connectivity as required within console, between consoles and from
consoles to comms-room sources.
• Design patterns to support extensibility of the solution onto additional desks or
to additional control rooms at a future date
• Implementation of Operator Console solution:
• Deployment of desktop infrastructure (e.g. keyboard, mouse, displays,
controllers, networking) onto existing ENCC physical desktops.
• Deployment of end-user compute and associated hardware. This may be
deployed under the control room desks or racked in a comms room
environment, and we would like to explore both options as part of this RFP.
• Deployment of highly-resilient connectivity between consoles and compute
infrastructure (utilising existing networking suppliers).
