Beyond RADAR

There has been some justifiable concern that, perhaps, there will not be enough work to for eBusiness folks. So, I got to thinking. I thought: Think beyond RADAR (as a class project).

1. Are there other applications on campus that could benefit from mobile reporting? Security? Maintenance? If we think generally enough about what it means to submit a report, we may be able to solve a more larger problem then we originally intended...as long as primary goals are met. If we want to pursue such questions, maybe the eBusiness people should set out identifying some stakeholders in such an endeavor. Do some "market research." Measure interest. Report back.
2. Build a business plan for building out RADAR such that we could market it to other institutions. What is competition? What, if anything, are other schools doing? What other schools would be interested in something like RADAR?
3. Develop marketing collateral as-if we were going to market RADAR beyond the confines of SMU.

Those are just three ideas. I bet the team can come up with more.
