Dell Inc.
Dell Inc. listens to customers
and delivers innovative technology and services they
trust and value. Uniquely enabled by its direct business
model, Dell sells more systems globally than any computer
company, placing it No. 25 on the Fortune 500. Dell's
climb to market leadership is the result of a persistent
focus on delivering the best possible customer experience
by directly selling standards-based computing products
and services. Revenue for the last four quarters totaled
$56.7 billion and the company employs approximately
69,700 team members around the globe.
Dell
was founded in 1984 by Michael Dell, the longest-tenured
executive to lead a company in the computer industry.
The company is based on a simple concept: by selling
computer systems directly to customers, Dell could best
understand their needs and efficiently provide the most
effective computing solutions to meet those needs. This
direct business model eliminates retailers that add
unnecessary time and cost, or can diminish Dell's understanding
of customer expectations. The direct model allows the
company to build every system to order and offer customers
powerful, richly-configured systems at competitive prices.
Dell also introduces the latest relevant technology
much more quickly than companies with slow-moving, indirect
distribution channels, turning over inventory in just
under five days on average.
