Okay, hear me out.
Every HoP desk gets a new console, an Access Request Console. This console has an ID slot and works similar to the Chemical Request Console in that you can request things, but instead of chemicals, you request access.
Here's I imagine the whole procedure:
- HoP leaves his desk because there's nobody around.
- Someone shows up, but no HoP is found, they insert their ID into the console and request "Engineering" access.
- HoP gets a notification via PDA / Device.
- HoP gets a new tool (maybe integrated into PDA) that allows him to remotely access the Identifaction Computer.
- HoP asks department heads via radio if this request is granted / decides himself.
- The card that's inserted into the Access Request Console can be remotely altered via this new function.
- Console beeps after access has been modified (different beeps if approved or denied), person removes ID and goes back to work.
This solves two problems. HoPs are no longer necessarily encouraged to sit around the desk all day and people are no longer forced to wait for someone to show up to grant access.
This leaves the HoP free to perhaps help out in other Civilian departments, or to just do other things. This is also in line with the general decentralization of the HoP office since many department heads already have their own identification computers.
