SUBJECT: Furniture for Pilot SAFE
1. Keith Hall of 0B was given an excellent demonstration in the
SAFE test lab by SAS/OCR, of the SAFE systems furniture
and of the problems in using the Delta Data 7260 terminal on non-systems
furniture. fie was also shown the crowded conditions of the OPA branch
which was one of the three NFAC branches 'selected some months ago to
participate in Pilot SAFE. Attendees of at least -part of the above were
Mr. Hall
2. Mr. Hall expressed appreciation of the problems in not using
systems furniture for SAFE. He was told that, due to delays in obtaining
systems furniture, we were reprioritizing the three Pilot SAFE branches
and installing Pilot SAFE first and without systems furniture in the
OSvR branch designated for Pilot SAFE. The OS1%1Z branch (vice the OER
and OS?tiR branches) was the only one of the three selected branches which
clearly has adequate space for non-systems furniture. His help was
solicited in gaining 0'.B approval for systems furniture for Pilot SAFE
(and large SAFE).
3. Mr. Hall proposed that Pilot SAFE be "50/50", half systems
furniture and half non-systems furniture. Ile said that he wanted to
have available a study based upon Pilot SAFE, addressing non-systems
furniture vs. systems furniture (considering both space and human factors)
available to him before he received the CIA's future large request for
systems furniture for large SAFE. He was informed that such a study
would be made available to him, and that the Office of Medical Services
had already been workin with SAS/OCR in studying SAFE human factors
considerations.
