Dell Launches Dedicated Services

Dell has launched a dedicated IT services organization, named Dell Services, that will focus on midmarket enterprise customers. The IT company formed the unit by integrating Perot Systems, purchased Nov. 3 for US$3.9 billion, with the enterprise services operation from its own Large Enterprise business unit.
"Dell became an IT leader through highly efficient, built-to-order, IT products solutions. Now we want to do the same thing in services, by reducing complexity and driving out inefficiencies across the service," said Peter Altabef, president of the new organization. The combined units are expected to generate approximately US$7.5 billion in annual revenue for the IT services provider.
