Why Dell, Intel and CDW are better together

Long-term partners in innovation, Dell Technologies and Intel are today pushing the boundaries of sustainable design. Together, they’re reimagining the PC ecosystem for a more sustainable future.

Since 2007, Dell has recovered more than 2.8 billion pounds (1.3 billion kilograms) of used electronics. With sustainability a top priority, they design products and offer services for a circular economy rather than a linear one, using innovative techniques and new technology to reduce and reuse waste. This way, we can increase energy efficiency and extend the lives of products and materials, reducing harmful emissions and limiting environmental impact.

It has been estimated that 40 percent of PCs are left on overnight, accounting for as much as half their total energy consumption. With the Intel vPro® platform, you can reduce energy waste by setting wake up and power off times for your whole fleet – both wired and wireless PCs. Remote management with Intel vPro® allows you to manage the PC lifecycle even when the OS is not functioning.

Benefits include:

  • Increased energy efficiency
  • Reduced energy consumption and associated costs
  • Reduced carbon footprint
  • Reduced e-waste
  • Simplified lifecycle management and associated savings
  • Simplified and more efficient provisioning
  • AI-optimized solutions to accelerate transformation
  • Modern devices with enhanced user experience
  • Expert support from an experienced industry leader
