They discuss how thoughtful planning helps your agency bring information together, support shared situational awareness, and equip operators to make informed decisions.

Topics include:

• Start with the people using the space. Understand your analysts’ workflows, staffing needs, and plans for growth before choosing technology.
• Make information useful. Consider how operators will access, share, and manage sources such as body camera feeds and computer-aided dispatch.
• Choose displays for demanding environments. Account for fine details, viewing distances, glare, lighting, and the requirements of continuous 24/7 operation.
• Include IT, security, and privacy early. Bring network teams, operators, and other stakeholders into the design process to align requirements.
• Support comfort during long shifts. Plan sightlines, display layouts, adjustable desks, and seating around the people who work in the room.
• Build flexibility into your investment. Explore how AV-over-IP solutions can support expansion and how one space can serve crime center, emergency operations, training, and meeting needs.
• Extend operations into the field. Learn how temporary and mobile command centers can support major events and connect field operations with your permanent facility.

Whether you’re building or upgrading an existing command center, this conversation offers practical considerations for your next step. Listen to the episode and connect with AVI-SPL to explore a design that supports your public safety mission and gives your agency room to grow.
