In this episode we welcome Jan Petter Lie, President for the European Business at Cyviz, a solutions provider for dynamic control rooms in mission-critical environments. With his extensive experience in creating flagship innovation centres, collaboration spaces, and customer-facing environments, Jan Petter offers valuable insights into the evolving landscape of control room design.

Unlike traditional technology vendors, Cyviz takes a holistic approach, integrating subsystems at a hardware level to create control rooms that are more than just the sum of their parts. We delve into the limitations of the traditional approach to control room design, emphasizing the need to align design with operational requirements rather than starting solely from a technological standpoint.

The conversation explores the impact of digitalization on control rooms and how organizations are adapting to handle increased data consumption and dynamic workflows. Jan Petter emphasizes the importance of involving control room operators and stakeholders early in the design process to ensure the space meets their operational needs and enables better decision-making.

We highlight some of Cyviz's past projects, including the Special Olympics World Games 2019 Master Operations Center, the Acute Medical Command Center in Alesund, and the Renewable Energy Control Room for Tronder Energy. These examples demonstrate the value of future-proof, standardized control room solutions that can adapt as needs change.

Discover how embracing innovation and fostering a culture of change can transform control room environments, enhance efficiency, and empower operators. Whether you're interested in secure control rooms, digital transformation, or the future of control room design, this episode provides valuable insights from an industry leader.
