For the 1998 Forum, Civil Engineering Research Foundation (CERF) proposes a two-phase strategy to ensure greater likelihood of future collaborations. It is not enough to have a generic indication of interest from industry. Rather, for collaborations and consortia to be formed, it is critical to match the specific research projects of university researchers with the commercialization needs and expectations of industry. CERF will identify those projects whose potential commercial applications offer significant enough interest to industry to encourage their collaboration with academia. By matching the current and planned efforts taking place under NSF auspices with the strategic needs of industry, CERF will identify research `clusters` of significant interest to industry and academia. CERF will recommend holding the Collaborations Forum only if a sufficient number of industry representatives express specific interest and make explicit pledges indicating a desire to work in developing a collaboration with academic researchers.

土木工程研究基金会为1998年的论坛提出了一项分两个阶段的战略，以确保今后更有可能进行合作。仅仅一般性地表示工业界的兴趣是不够的。相反，要形成合作和联盟，关键是将大学研究人员的具体研究项目与工业的商业化需求和期望相匹配。CERF将确定那些潜在商业应用能够引起工业界足够兴趣的项目，以鼓励他们与学术界合作。通过将在国家科学基金赞助下正在进行的和计划中的努力与工业界的战略需要相匹配，中央应急基金将确定工业界和学术界有重大兴趣的研究“集群”。应急基金将建议，只有在有足够数量的行业代表表示具体兴趣并明确承诺愿意与学术研究人员开展合作的情况下，才举行合作论坛。
