Dell teams up with NYC Dept. of Education
The New York City Department of Education (DOE) has called on Dell to recycle 50,000 pieces of outdated computer equipment.
In its largest recycling project since launching Asset Recovery Services (ASR) in July 2003, Dell is removing computer equipment from nearly 900 schools and administrative locations in New York City for recycling or reuse. Dell will refurbish 1,000 of these computer systems for the city to use in the
Dell TechKnow program. The Dell TechKnow program partners with school districts, corporations and the community to provide "at-risk" or underserved middle school students with technology training.
"We chose Dell for its end-to-end recycling capability, its asset management and repair services, so we could focus on our implementation of newer technology to serve our schools, teachers and students," Charlie Niessner, chief information officer for the New York City DOE, says. The New York DOE is the nation's largest school district, serving 1.1 million students.
Dell's ARS is packing and removing the outdated systems and auditing them for refurbishing or recycling. This arrangement is an extension of an earlier multi-year hardware and managed services agreement between Dell and the New York City DOE that consolidated 700 technology vendors to one, reducing costs and simplifying technology management.
