AV Technology - March 2008 - (Page 21) EVERYONE IN THE AV CHAIN FROM MANUFACTURERS, DESIGNERS AND INTEGRATORS TO OPERATORS AND END USERS MUST UNDERSTAND IT AS WELL AS AV. private companies to modernize their operations. A critical component of this modernization is the improvement of radio interoperability. This is only one example of how the government is working to modernize business practices to adapt to rapid technology advancement and the shift toward knowledge work. As the military has realized, collaboration technologies are force multipliers, which means that every successfully implemented collaboration technology can reduce the amount of human labor required to achieve results. Collaboration technologies are mission critical, and it is clear why organizations are rapidly adopting them. The AV/IT convergence that has been discussed for the last several years is not only here, but it is transforming the way the world communicates. Globalization, green initiatives, and knowledge work require leadership from the AV industry. Everyone in the AV chain from manufacturers, designers and integrators to operators and end users must understand IT as well as AV. They must leverage interoperable systems, international standards, and rapidly emerging disruptive technologies. AV practitioners will be the change agents that facilitate collaboration in the new world order. Gary L.
