In short
A GCC video wall specification should connect the operator's task to sources, server capacity and a clear division of project responsibilities. This guide covers planning questions for projects in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain.
It provides a common technical starting point for a customer and an integrator. Confirm the actual site, contracting arrangements and delivery scope in the project enquiry.
The guide does not assume a local service office or a fixed regional delivery time.
Use the operating scenario to choose a project route
A command centre needs a shared view that supports coordination. A network or security operations centre needs readable monitoring dashboards and investigation context. Energy and transport rooms need an explicit boundary between shared visualisation and their primary operating systems.
Corporate AV projects can involve conferences, documents and management dashboards. Venue operations may require camera feeds alongside incident and event information. Choose representative tasks for your room and identify the people who control each scene.
Document routine monitoring, a shift handover and an incident review separately. The set of simultaneous sources can change between these modes. Use those scenarios when discussing display layout, permissions and controller capacity with the implementation team.
Prepare one source register for every bidder
For each source, record connection method, resolution, frame rate, access owner and expected availability. Distinguish IP video, web pages, remote desktops, conferences and captured outputs. Mark which dependencies belong to the customer and which belong to the integrator.
Use representative sources to check authentication and connectivity before finalising the hardware. A locally installed controller cannot remove an external dashboard's own network requirements. Include the required accounts and network paths in the deployment review.
Review the actual languages and text used in your dashboards. Ask operators to check labels, maps and reading direction on the proposed display arrangement. Agree any operator-interface language requirement explicitly during the demonstration rather than inferring it from the website.
Assess a Linux controller against the workload
Craft Wall turns a standard Linux server with an NVIDIA GPU into a video wall controller. It combines supported cameras, dashboards, remote desktops, conferences and other sources into scenes managed through a browser on a laptop or tablet.
The licence has no caps on displays, sources, operators or canvases. Hardware still sets practical capacity: GPU resources, video outputs, capture connections and the simultaneous source workload. Review those limits on the configuration proposed for the project.
Check the complete display path with the integrator. The controller, signal transport, display processor and screens have different responsibilities. Put the required connections and supplied equipment into a shared bill of materials so interfaces are visible during the review.
Keep price and currency assumptions explicit
Craft Wall publishes a perpetual licence per server and a preconfigured-server starting price in euros. Use the pricing page for those figures. Ask for invoice currency, delivery scope and payment terms in a project-specific offer before budgeting in local currency.
Separate the software licence from displays, mounting, controller hardware, commissioning and support. State whether the customer supplies any of those items. This makes offers easier to compare even when different integrators propose different hardware arrangements.
Use the five-year TCO calculator to explore the effect of your hardware and support assumptions. Keep its model inputs with the comparison.
A scenario is useful for planning, but it cannot establish the supplier's price or availability for a particular site.
Agree network and identity requirements with the customer
Craft Wall supports on-premises and air-gapped deployment, with SSO, MFA, RBAC and LDAP among its access functions. Review the exact identity integration, account lifecycle and operator permissions with an engineer before writing the acceptance procedure.
Document source dependencies, update delivery and maintenance responsibilities for the proposed installation. Confirm the customer's required documents and approval process with the project team. The software's deployment mode alone does not establish regulatory approval for a site.
Plan acceptance before scheduling the changeover
Prepare checks for source access, legibility, scene changes, operator roles and the recovery scenarios the team requires. Include a rollback plan for an existing wall. Record measured results on the agreed configuration rather than relying on a generic recovery promise.
Bring the source register, display arrangement, project country and integration role to a 30-minute demonstration. The session uses your sources and helps identify configuration questions. Use the partner enquiry if your team delivers video wall projects for customers.
