Epsis Launches Enify Control: Software-First Control Rooms Without the Hardware Lock-In

Press Release

From Racks to SaaS: Epsis Launches Enify Control

A software-first control room platform where every screen becomes a decision tool. Powered by Enify, proven in operations.

Bergen, Norway – 03 September 2025 — Epsis, the Norwegian software company behind the Enify platform, today announced the launch of Enify Control, a new software-first approach to building and operating control rooms and operations centres.

Enify Control replaces hardware-heavy setups with a software-defined orchestration layer, enabling teams to design, run, and adapt workflows digitally. By reusing existing PCs, displays, and networks, Enify Control allows organizations to modernize without costly “rip-and-replace” upgrades — delivering clarity, speed, and flexibility from day one.

“Running a modern operations centre shouldn’t depend on racks of custom hardware,” said Jan-Erik Nordtvedt, CEO of Epsis. “With Enify Control, every screen becomes a decision tool. Teams gain the freedom to operate smarter, faster, and from anywhere — without being locked into one vendor’s box.”

Why It Matters

Traditional control rooms are often expensive, hardware-bound, and slow to adapt. Enify Control changes that:

  • Setup in days, not months
  • Reuse what you already have — PCs, screens, networks
  • No AV matrices. No complex KVMs
  • Plan smarter — design and test your control room digitally before installation, then scale with hardware only where it adds value
  • Scale with software — from one desk to a global centre

Already in Use: Enify is already in use at leading energy organizations, proving its value in high-stakes operational environments. Enify Control builds on this foundation.

What’s New in Enify Control

  • Real-Time Source Control
    Orchestrate live feeds from any PC, app, or window. Combine multiple sources into a shared view — on a desktop, video wall within your local network, using software.
  • Built on the Full Enify Platform
    Includes Enify’s one-click Boards, role-based workspaces, links across apps and screen layouts. For saving and reusing.
  • Collaboration Everywhere
    Operators, planners, and specialists share the same live context — onshore, offshore, or remote.
  • Software-Defined Scaling
    Start small, grow as needed. From a single desk to a global operations centre.

Two Paths, One Solution: Whether upgrading an existing room or planning a new one, Enify Control adapts to your needs, without vendor lock-in.

Rethinking the Control Room

The term “control room” often focuses on screens and walls. Enify Control reframes it as a workflow environment for the entire operations team, operators, planners, coordinators, and specialists working together in real time.
“Behind every operation are teams who need structure, clarity, and context, wherever they’re working,” Nordtvedt added. “Enify Control closes that gap and brings the control room experience to everyone, not just those in the room.”

Availability

Enify Control is delivered as SaaS, builds on the Enify platform. Alongside Enify Flow, it gives organizations two ways to modernize operations. from daily workflows to mission-critical control rooms.

Partner Ready: AV/IT partners can deliver Enify Control alongside existing networks and displays — making modern control rooms faster to deploy and easier to maintain.

FAQ

What is a VOC (Virtual Operation Center)?

VOC is a digital workspace that helps operational teams manage their meetings, routines, updates, and collaboration regardless of physical location—all in one place. Built inside Microsoft Teams (and optionally powered by Enify), it brings structure, clarity, and control to daily operations without adding extra tools.

Can I start small and scale later?

Yes. Most of our customers begin with a pilot phase to test VOC structure and functionality with a core team. Based on your feedback, we help you adapt and roll out in phases—by shift, location, or department. This ensures your VOC grows in step with your real operational needs.

Do I need to buy Enify right away?

Not at all. Many teams start with a VOC based purely on Microsoft Teams. If you later need advanced features—like role-based views, digital assistants, or access to multiple systems—Enify can be added at any time to expand your VOC’s capabilities.

What kind of support do we get during setup?

Every VOC setup includes expert guidance and hands on support from our team. We help define routines, build and test your workspace, and refine it based on feedback. Our team brings real operational experience, with strengths in project delivery, change management, and technical solutions

Is there a free trial of Enify?

Yes! You can try Enify during the project to explore how it enhances your VOC. You can also book a demo to see it in action, tailored to your team’s context.

Supporting Digital Collaboration in Drilling and Well – Equinor’s Implementation of Virtual Operation Rooms

Epsis has delivered over 50 Virtual Operation Rooms (VOR) as part of Equinor’s initiative to improve collaboration in drilling and well operations, globally.

The rollout builds on a successful pilot phase and represents a structured effort to enhance digital collaboration in a complex operational environment. These Virtual Operation Rooms are built using Microsoft Teams shared channels and currently support teams in Norway, the UK, Brazil, and Canada.

A Scalable Framework for Global Operations

The VOR environments were designed to enable secure and efficient collaboration across disciplines and organizational boundaries. As part of the implementation:

  • Over 60 vendors have been onboarded into shared channels within Equinor’s Microsoft Teams environment.
  • More than 12,000 users are included across the collaboration environments (some users are active in multiple rooms).
  • Epsis has supported the onboarding of more than 800 internal and external teams.

This work reflects a growing need for structured digital collaboration that supports real-time operation regardless of geographical location.

Continued Collaboration

Epsis is proud to have contributed to this project and appreciates the trust placed in us throughout the delivery. We also recognize the value of close cooperation with Equinor and the many stakeholders involved.

We look forward to continued collaboration to enable digital ways of working in operations.

Epsis is awarded a broad roll out project for Virtual Operation Rooms (VOR) 2.0.

December 15, 2023 By epsis

Epsis Archives for epsis

Epsis is awarded a broad roll out project for Virtual Operation Rooms (VOR) 2.0.

Epsis is glad to announce that Equinor has awarded us an exciting “Virtual Operations Room (VOR 2.0)” project. This project involves over 25 suppliers and 30 installations, rigs, and vessels. It is the first step in establishing virtual spaces for Drilling and Well’s operations. These are designed to create a space that gives you the same collaboration as being in the same physical room.

The project will use Microsoft Team’s B2B direct connect functionality to facilitate secure connections between Equinor and its suppliers.

The virtual spaces will allow the operational teams to work in a shared channel within their own company’s Teams. They will be able to communicate and share information seamlessly, without any barriers such as login issues, lack of access, or lack of management of who is online. An added benefit is the potential for a significant reduction in email communication.

We are looking forward to collaborating with the D&W team in Equinor. #digitalWork

Wintershall Dea has opened a new operations center for drilling and well in Stavanger

Wintershall Dea has opened a new operations center for drilling and well in Stavanger

The new operations center for Wintershall Dea’s drilling and well operations was opened in Stavanger earlier this summer. The center will be used in connection with follow-up of drilling operations from the Transocean Norge rig that Wintershall Dea has contracted to drill 11 wells in the period 2023 to 2027. The center is set up with modern A/V technology provided by Kinly to ensure the best possible interaction solution for the centre.

“This has been an exciting project where Wintershall Dea has been forward thinking when it comes to thinking about flexibility both inside and outside the room. This has meant that we have had to create an architecture that can change as needed”, says customer manager at Kinly, Birger Isdal.

“Our goal has been to set up a center that helps in a seamless way users to be able to interact effectively in the center – and between offshore and land. We have arranged for various tasks to be carried out, both with regular participants and guests”, adds Senior Solution Designer Frode Merkesvik at Kinly.

The delivery didn’t stop there. Wintershall Dea wanted a central solution where users could easily and flexibly fill all the screens in the room with relevant content from different applications. They also wanted access to this information from their own PCs outside the operations centre. For this, they have chosen Epsis’ Enify solution for structured work and information retrieval. The solution enables users to set up fixed activities and save these for reuse and further development. Through efficient use of screen space and associated activities, everyday life is structured.

“The center will support the operational activities within drilling and wells. With its flexible and smart technology solutions, the users’ execution of good work processes is strengthened,” says René Andersen, IT manager for Wintershall Dea and owner of the new centre.

The opening took place at the office in Stavanger with representatives from the entire drilling and well environment in the company.

“We look forward to using the new center for drilling and wells. We work with many different activities and are sure that the solutions the center offers will be an important aid to gain an increased understanding of the situation and make better data-driven decisions,” says Frode Angell-Olsen, drilling operations manager for Wintershall Dea’s drilling operations for Transocean Norway.
