The Intrepid class bridge command station provides seating and information displays for the ship's commanding officer (captain) and first officer. The command stations are centrally located, designed to maximize interaction with all key bridge personnel, while permitting an unobstructed view of the main screen.

Nestled between the captain's chair and the first officer's chair is a hideaway console incorporating miniaturized status displays, and simplified Conn station and Ops station controls. Upon keyboard or vocal command, the captain or first officer can use these controls to override the basic operation of the spacecraft. Such overrides are generally reserved for emergency situations.

Regular ship operating procedures require a shift commanding officer to be on duty at all times, although the presence of other command personnel is optional, depending on specific mission requirements. Yellow and red alert operating rules generally require the presence of at least two command personnel, in addition to Conn, Ops, and Tactical officers.

Bench seats on either side of the command chairs can act as temporary, if not entirely comfortable, seating for guest or mission specific personnel.
