If that doesn't work, you're likely going to be faced with replacing the mainboard and hard drive,
Is not it strange that Dell does not have a solution that is not a replacement motherboard? At a minimum, they require documents that prove ownership of the equipment and then charge for the unlocking service.
If so is not a solution to the brand problem, for both Dell and Intel.
Safe Boot/Endpoint encryption is managed from a central server run by a business or other institution -- I don't think it was ever offered as a cloud-based service to individuals. Whoever ran that server should have master access to a tool that can be used to unlock the system - it's version-specific so it's best to revert the system to the same person or group who ran that server.
Unlocking instructions here. Unfortunately, if your client has lost the master password -- it's not recoverable.

This is not a Dell issue. A CMOS password, hard drive password, etc. would be -- this is third party software and utility that was installed and enabled other than through Dell.
Someone installed SafeBoot (the McAfee product that was ultimately integrated into the Intel anti-theft platform) -- and someone must have administered that software. If you can't find that person/software, and the system is worth the cost of a replacement board and drive, that's the way to proceed.
