LHRIC Metrics and Accountability Report
Evaluating our performance to improve our services.
The LHRIC holds itself accountable to the members of the technology consortium by measuring our performance quarterly and sharing results. We use this information to take actions that will help improve our services. We also measure our own staff's satisfaction and are committed to the LHRIC being a satisfying place to work.
We continue to develop performance indicators for all services through a partnership with our LHRIC Advisory Committee and our service user groups. For questions and comments about this process, please contact your district's Account Manager.

LHRIC 793 Plan
The Lower Hudson Regional Information Center has submitted its 793 Plan for technology services to NYSED.
The LHRIC Advisory Committee, composed of district and BOCES representatives from each of our three counties, meets on a regular basis to assist the LHRIC in planning for the future. This group helped develop a comprehensive strategic plan for the LHRIC. Additionally, the LHRIC hosts annual meetings to help determine consortium “Priorities and Directions”. Feedback from these meetings is incorporated into the 793 Plan.
The LHRIC and it's regional partners are committed to the following areas of growth and improvement:
- Data for Decision Making
- Remote Technology Support
- Video Conferencing and Online Learning
- Instructional Technology Integration via Model Schools
- Security Consulting and Remediation
- Centrally Hosted ASP Offerings
For complete details, please review the entire 793 Plan.
