Here at Duquesne I handle the R&D. I am task with consulting with departments on what projects they need, designing those projects, the equipment acquisition and project management of each project. I do a lot of the R&D often in the design stages of projects. We have a Director and then 4 full time staff in the office plus 6 students. The students do the general filter cleaning and first tier support. The 4 of us then each have an area of expertise (Programmer, System builder, Computers, system design) and handle the maintenance that the students can’t.

Not to be simplistic here, but I think it’s important that in addition to your own research, your vendors of choice can play a role here. It seems like they need to hear from you periodically in regard to your technical goals and challenges, then allow them to communicate from their standpoint, where they see the manufacturers and technology headed.
For example, if we are looking at Hybrid projector technology, 1080p, HDBaseT, and HDMI only switchers, it seems like they have an incentive to be on the lookout for that, and can give advice as to the purchases made (generally not specifically) by other schools.
I would be interested to know if anyone is using web conferencing with other peer schools to get this valuable information, in-lieu of being able to travel to national or region conferences.

I think there was one at Carroll college (2012), but I was unable to go, then last year they went to a larger deal at SeaTac, I think. We just don’t have the attendance to pay off for the vendors that pay for everything.
