We are trying to validate that a single operator can SAFELY operate, without jeopardizing quality, multiple machines at the same time. Has anyone done or seen this done successfully?

Go back in your hole. Mr. Troll.
How many of us will admit to starting a cut with the powerfeed, knowing it is going to take a minute or so to complete, and running over to grab another tool or pull something out of the bandsaw ... ? I admit that I do it from time to time, but I work alone (no one who could reach in and get hurt), and I always do it with great focus on the risk involved.
BTW, I DO regularly set the bandsaw to cutting something while I go back to the mill or lathe - that's two manual machines running at once.

Quite Understandable...The shop foreman hired his sister to work in the shop.
She was running the engine lathe in front of mine.
I got sidetracked staring at her ass and almost ran the tool into the jaws.
True story.
