The Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) workstation that Hart uses for its Verity workstations, the Hewlett Packard (HP) Z240, is End-of-Life (EOL) and no longer manufactured. Hart will use the HP Z4 G4 workstation as an equivalent replacement to the HP Z240. The COTS display for use with the HP Z240 is also EOL and is replaced.

New drivers are required to be added to the OS image to support the equivalent workstation hardware, however, the Windows operating system build and Verity Software are not modified by the change.
