Show Me the Savings

"Dell has helped us eliminate the installing software on new systems, between US$12 and US$14 in staff or desktop deployed into the field."

- Todd Larivee, IT Manager, Missouri Department of Conservation

The Missouri Department of Conservation wanted to improve IT staff efficiency by reducing the time spent creating and updating the client system images that support a fleet of 1,650 notebook and desktop PCs, and to cut the time spent installing software on 400 new systems every year as part of its regular equipment refresh cycle.

Dell^TM  ImageDirect services helped reduce time spent creating and managing software images, setting up new systems, and handling support issues.

• Get IT Faster: Preinstalled images reduced new system setup costs by up to 70 percent; Shipping new systems directly to field offices helped eliminate an estimated US$20,000 in travel time and expenses per year
• Run IT Better: The Dell image management service helped save approximately two weeks of staff time per year by cutting the time spent building and testing images
• Grow IT Smarter: Helped enable up to a 10 percent reduction in the number of configuration-related support call
