Adjust Services Whenever The Need Arises
How Does This Work?
Taking on ownership of more technology to support a new business initiative requires IT buyers to evaluate options, coordinate delivery and set aside time for installation, tasks that can delay a new product or service launch.
When a business subscribes to IT infrastructure, fast installation is included in the service contract, allowing businesses to put the technology to work more quickly.
This pricing model allows businesses to scale up infrastructure to chase new opportunities.
Dell Technologies will work with you to establish the “committed capacity” you need to meet your current hardware, software and service needs. You will also set a “buffer capacity” you can access when additional resources are needed to meet bursts in demand. By taking this flexible approach to IT resourcing, you can respond quickly to business changes.

When IT is responsible for updating and maintaining infrastructure, it spends less time supporting strategic objectives.
But when a business consumes infrastructure tech as a service, many routine IT tasks are managed by a third-party service provider.
By delegating this kind of work to external specialists, IT can dedicate more time to high-value priorities and revenue-generating projects for line-of-business leaders.

Underestimating how much IT capacity is needed could cause systems to crash if they can’t meet user demand.
But organizations can minimize this risk if they switch to a pay-per-use model, which allows them to quickly access additional IT resources.
The infrastructure-as-a-service approach also allows organizations to spend less time and effort on capacity planning, which is difficult and susceptible to human error.
