PENANG, MALAYSIA – In a move said to respond to the continuing changing work environments, DELL Technologies announced its latest commercial client and ecosystem portfolio that is said to demonstrate that investing in the right tools and technology remains essential for organizations to enable a productive and happy workforce.
“The world is changing and evolving, and hybrid work is at the core of what we do because it’s what out customers do,” said Paul Carter, VP, client solutions group for APAC and Japan of IBM. But “wherever productivity happens, there is a need for secure and intelligent technologies. So how do we best fulfill the needs of the employees?”
For DELL Technologies, the current organizational needs are focused into three broad categories – i.e. delighting the end users by enabling seamless collaboration and productivity that ensures they have the most intelligent devices and best collaboration tools; simplifying IT to modernize the most comprehensive lifecycle services and most secure commercial PCs; and advancing sustainability to empowerg organizations to make impacts on the future with sustainable and innovative products, packaging, services and solutions.
Dealing with these challenges is said to sit “at the core of Dell’s design philosophy and represents the innovations in its commercial portfolio. From the device, to software and solutions, to the ecosystem, all are designed to bring an elevated sense of connection and collaboration.”
“Technology has, and will, continue to shape the way people work and how they define it. In a hybrid, digital-first world, organizations must not only shift their mindset but also ensure their workforce is equipped with secure and intelligent technologies so they can be at their best,” Carter added.
DELL’s updated its commercial portfolio with new designs, new collaboration features and new level of performance, include:

The Precision portfolio WAS refreshed with multiple form factors and options for mobility and performance, aimed at those needing a little more horsepower and graphics performance without compromising mobility.
Dell OptiPlex portfolio – celebrating its 30th anniversary this year – now comes with simplified options that will make it easy for customers to configure and buy systems that match their business needs. The new set of advanced displays and peripherals was developed to boost users’ productivity and ease of collaboration for an improved overall PC experience.
Lastly, the latest version of Dell Optimizer extends intelligence from the PC to the rest of the ecosystem by adding intelligent audio, privacy, connectivity and collaboration that learn and respond to the way people work.
For Rakesh Mandal, senior director, Client Solutions Group, South Asia and Asia Emerging Markets, Dell Technologies: “We believe innovation begins with people. That is why a human-centric approach is core to how we design our intelligent solutions to empower users and IT to work and innovate everywhere. We deliver research-based solutions to help guide our customers to the right ecosystem based on how their people work – what we called persona-based solutions. And, at the same time, we simplify IT by combining the best of hardware, software, services and security into one solution for our customers.”
DELL Technologies also emphasized that it has been increasing its focus on sustainability by expanding innovative use of sustainable materials using circular design principles.
“Dell continues to drive circular innovation in our product design, packaging, manufacturing, materials and services. We are expanding the use of low-carbon emissions aluminum to include more recycled content and extending this material to more of our portfolio, including the Latitude 9440, and Precision 5680, and to the Latitude 7000 series later this year,” said Anothai Wettayakorn, vice president for Asia Emerging Markets and South Asia Consumer and Small Business, DELL Technologies.
Specifically, the company has increased the percentage of post-consumer recycled materials to reduce the environmental impact further in its most sustainable Latitude laptop series, Precision 3000 Series workstations and the latest commercial monitors. Meanwhile, the “Quiet Mode” within the thermal management settings of Dell Optimizer can help end users save power up to 18%.
“Consumption is going to continue to grow. So it’s incumbent on us even in isolation of what the customers ask from us to produce products that are less oil-based and more bio-plastic based, etc,” Carter added.
DELL Technologies helps organizations and individuals build their digital future and transform how they work, live and play. The company provides customers with the industry’s broadest and most innovative technology and services portfolio for the data era.
