Ergonomic design of control centres - Part 1: Principles for the design of control centres (ISO 11064-1:2000)
This Part of ISO 11064 specifies requirements and establishes general principles for the ergonomic design of a new control centre, as well as for control centre expansion, refurbishment, and technology based upgrades. This part of ISO 11064 covers all types of control centres, for example, those found in process plants, transport/logistic control systems, and people deployment transportation systems.
Conception ergonomique des centres de commande - Partie 1: Principes pour la conception des centres de commande (ISO 11064-1:2000)
La présente partie de l'ISO 11064 établit des principes, des recommandations et des exigences ergonomiques applicables à la conception des centres de commande, ainsi qu'à leur extension, leur rénovation et leur mise à jour technologique. Elle couvre tous les types de centres de commande généralement destinés à l'industrie de transformation, aux systèmes de commande liés au transport et à la logistique, et aux services de contrôle de flux de personnes. Bien que la présente partie de l'ISO 11064 ait été conçue à l'origine pour les centres de commande non mobiles, bon nombre des principes définis dans ce document pourraient être applicables aux centres de commande mobiles tels que ceux se trouvant à bord des navires et des aéronefs.

General Information
Overview
EN ISO 11064-1:2000 - Ergonomic design of control centres (Part 1) sets out the principles and requirements for ergonomic design of new control centres and for expansions, refurbishment or technology upgrades. Published by CEN and identical to ISO 11064-1:2000, it applies across industries-process plants, transport and logistics control systems and people‑deployment systems-and covers core control rooms, control suites and local control stations. The standard promotes a human‑centred design approach to reduce human error and improve safety, efficiency and operator wellbeing.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Human‑centred design principles: Emphasises designing the work system (humans, machines, environment and operations) for safety, health and performance.
- Integration of ergonomics into engineering: Ergonomic activities and tools must be embedded in project management, planning, procurement and commissioning.
- Iterative design and validation: Design is iterative - verification and validation activities are required throughout to confirm that operator needs and specified requirements are met.
- Design process framework: The document defines a phased ergonomic design process (Phase A–E):
- Phase A: Clarification
- Phase B: Analysis and definition
- Phase C: Conceptual design
- Phase D: Detailed design
- Phase E: Operational feedback
- Terminology and functional analysis: Defines control centre, control room, control suite, function allocation, functional analysis/specification, task analysis, validation and verification to support structured requirements development.
- Scope of application: Primarily for fixed control centres; many principles are also relevant to mobile control centres (ships, aircraft).
- Normative references: Cross‑references key ergonomics standards (for example ISO 6385 and ISO 11064‑3).
Practical applications
EN ISO 11064-1:2000 is used to:
- Guide ergonomic requirements for design or refurbishment of control rooms and operator workstations.
- Inform procurement specifications for control‑room hardware/software and layout.
- Structure human factors and safety assessments during system upgrades and automation projects.
- Support training, commissioning and operational feedback activities to ensure usability and reduce error.
Who should use this standard
- Human factors/ergonomics specialists and control room designers
- Systems engineers, control system integrators and facility planners
- Project managers responsible for control centre construction or upgrades
- Safety engineers, operations managers and regulators focusing on control‑room performance
Related standards
- ISO 6385 - Ergonomic principles in the design of work systems
- ISO 11064 series (Parts 2–8) - control suite arrangement, control room layout, workstation dimensions, displays & controls, environmental requirements, evaluation and application‑specific requirements
EN ISO 11064-1:2000 is essential for any organization aiming to design or upgrade control centres with a structured, evidence‑based ergonomic approach to improve operator performance, safety and system reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
SIST EN ISO 11064-1:2002 is a standard published by the Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST). Its full title is "Ergonomic design of control centres - Part 1: Principles for the design of control centres (ISO 11064-1:2000)". This standard covers: This Part of ISO 11064 specifies requirements and establishes general principles for the ergonomic design of a new control centre, as well as for control centre expansion, refurbishment, and technology based upgrades. This part of ISO 11064 covers all types of control centres, for example, those found in process plants, transport/logistic control systems, and people deployment transportation systems.
