• HOW WE MEASURE

    Social impact progress starts with strong measurement

    • Our ESG Plan for 2030 lays out ambitious goals for the coming decade. To meet these goals, we must chart a bold path and report our progress with clearly defined metrics. We’ve worked closely with stakeholders to strengthen our capabilities to measure our progress, ensure accountability, and understand where new ways of measuring are needed. 

    • The information you need

      Whether you’re an employee, a customer, a partner or a shareholder, our goal is to deliver the information you need — measurements that are relevant, current and easy to interpret.

    • Informed by experts

      Our reporting integrates feedback from third-party experts who have commended Dell’s strength in measurement and helped shape our approach.  

    • Committed to transparency

      We know trust is everything. Our promise is to not only share our methodology and progress with you, but to keep you informed throughout the process.

    • A growing, evolving demand for data

      Customers value transparency and purpose

      Employees want to work for responsible companies. And investor expectations are changing. Our measurement approach reflects the diverse, growing and evolving demand for social impact metrics — and integrates the most important information from common external ranking and reporting frameworks.

    • Dell Technology's bold new goal to reach net zero emissions by 2050 across its entire value chain positions the company to make meaningful progress on this decade’s most essential work of mitigating the climate crisis. We applaud Dell for recognizing the need to set science based targets with interim goals that create a roadmap to success in achieving net zero emissions.

    • STRENGTH IN GOALS & MEASUREMENT

      Achieving real progress requires thoughtful goal-setting and rigorous measurement

      In FY22, we added to our ESG Plan for 2030 by launching our new net zero goal as an extension of our existing climate-related goals. This reflects our strong commitment to being responsible corporate citizens, and to evolving our plan for how we will create a positive and lasting social impact on people and the planet as we work toward 2030 and beyond. Strong reporting is key to ensuring we remain on the right path to reach our goals, and that’s why our strategy is informed by executives, stakeholders, audit teams and third-party partners. We’re continuing to strengthen our approach by re-examining methodologies and restructuring our data collection and management. In our FY22 ESG Report, we focus on sharing year-over-year goal progress as compared to our baseline data for our social impact goals.

    • The expectations on companies to be transparent about their ways of working are greater than ever before.
