Instructional Local Area Network Planning
This service provides the design of an implementation plan based on the district technology plan. Local area network design is one item addressed by this service. The implementation service assigns a planning team to assist the school district in acquiring hardware and software as outlined in their district technology plan. The planning team will assist in the planning and scheduling of training as required by the plan.
The WNYRIC utilizes cost effective best practices determined by research that allows our experienced and trained technical staff to perform robust testing and support of the WNYRIC network in the areas of security, infrastructure, energy management, virtualization strategies, disaster recovery and business continuity. Therefore, we are able to be a district advocate for vendor contract issues and aggressively negotiate contract pricing and performance terms. Staff follow best practices in order to provide necessary security as it relates to the most recent student, teacher and principal data security and privacy regulations.
