The sustainability of science gateways is crucial to serve communities effectively, efficiently and reliably. One measure to achieve greater sustainability of science gateways is establishing on-campus teams. Researchers are served more efficiently since the support by experienced developers reduces individual project investments, and a team can bring the diversity of required expertise for a well-designed science gateway. This paper goes into detail about the challenges and the benefits of on-campus groups and of sharing resources across a campus. We provide four successful cases, describe the services of the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) to support the process in building such groups, and recommend strategies for using free campus resources.
