Dell is the No. 1 healthcare information technology services provider in the world according to the latest IT services worldwide market share report by Gartner, Inc. The report also ranks Dell second for computer hardware support in the Education market.
Gartner, one of the world's leading information technology research and advisory company's, based the report on 2009 revenue. The results reflect the combined revenue of both Dell and Perot Systems, which was acquired by Dell in 2009, creating a new business unit called "Dell Services".
Dell's leadership in the healthcare services market is one product of this acquisition, which combined the deep domain and industry expertise of both companies to provide healthcare organizations with an even greater range of offerings. Dell is one of the few companies that can offer healthcare payers and providers truly end-to-end solutions including hardware, implementation, hosting, consulting, back office functions (such as enrollment and billing), and services around Electronic Medical Records, Health Information Exchanges and Health Insurance Exchanges.
Similarly, the acquisition also enriches Dell's presence in the education market, adding to its portfolio such offerings as managed services, virtual desktop, business process services and applications.
"As the worldwide market leader in healthcare services and one of the two largest providers of computer hardware support in education, our goal is to deliver solutions that enable our customers to focus on what they do best. Nowhere is this more critical than in the healthcare and education markets. We believe Dell's rankings in the recently-released Gartner report would not be possible without the continued trust our customers have placed in us year after year. We look forward to furthering this trust while providing industry-leading solutions that keep ahead of the ever-changing developments in healthcare and education," mentioned Peter Altabef, President, Dell Services.
