As state and local governments increase infrastructure and public safety expenditures in response to broader technological changes, public safety organizations have an opportunity to modernize in ways that make communities and the first responders who serve them safer, smarter and better prepared to respond to unanticipated challenges.

To provide users with complete ruggedized solutions, devices, powered by Intel® Core™ processors need much more than extremely reliable performance in harsh working conditions. They need security, manageability, support and, when required, readily available service. That way, remote workers can stay productive no matter where they are, what they’re doing or the conditions they face.

People accomplish more with digital tools and workflows, and workforce transformation puts this concept into action by making sure employees have seamless, reliable access to the right IT—anytime, anywhere.

You can ensure each one of your workers has the right device to stay efficient regardless of their workflows and environments by engaging Dell. It provides some of the world’s top PCs, laptops, notebooks and 2-in-1s—plus rugged and rugged extreme tablets and laptops powered by 8th Generation Intel® Core™ processors.

Rugged PC's are designed to meet certain stability and reliability standards in harsh environments, including extreme temperatures, dust, moisture, watre, shock and vibration. Deployed more like infrastructure than traditional commercial PCs in fields like law enforcement, fire and rescue, rugged PCs are mission critical. However, the complexity, testing, and development costs needed to meet rugged user industry standards create a scarcity of major players and choice in the market. With two of the three main OEM's lacking the scale needed to drive down costs and effectively bring out new technologies.

In order to keep pace with the growth of business mobility without falling prey to its potential risks, IT must be able to efficiently address complex issues ranging from service provisioning, device procurement, and security oversight. Why? Information workers need access to often sensitive information across a wide range of business applications and devices from wherever they are. In other words, security and privacy policies that doesn’t impede end-user productivity will empower workers and boost their performance.

Now more than ever, IT technologists need to take control of PC infrastructure costs while deploying secure and manageable client solutions for their end users. With all the options available, how can IT pros position the right PC lifecycle solutions with management to make IT deployment, maintenance and continuous modernization simple?

Data security is at the top of the priority list for most organizations, as well it should be. Threats have never been more numerous, more varied or more dangerous. Phishing attacks, malware, ransomware, BIOS attacks and advanced persistent threats (APTs) are multiplying relentlessly (see sidebar). The dangers of data loss, extortion and identity theft are real. The global average cost of a data breach is $3.62 million USD, according to Ponemon Institute.

Both public and private organizations acknowledge that managing the PC life cycle becomes more complicated and expensive as the variety of PC devices and employee workstyles increase. In order to be fully productive, different groups of employees have different needs in terms of end-user device hardware, software, and configuration. Dell and Intel® commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study and examine the potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by leveraging Intel® Core™ vPro processors and Dell’s ProDeploy Plus and ProSupport Plus services.

As diverse organizations seek to implement data-driven strategies, the personal computer in all its varieties remains the key workforce productivity tool. IT leaders must guide PC management across the entire PC lifecycle to enable users to work most effectively.

Today, IT leaders address the PC lifecycle across a continuum from control to transformation. Control is geared to optimization, while transformation focuses on the business impact of technology. Although different, the two approaches are not in opposition. According to the recent Forrester Consulting study, “Digital Transformers Innovate, Digital Controllers Optimize,” both approaches strive for the same goals and face similar challenges.

Today, IT is tasked with increasing operational efficiency, whilst arming employees with the right tools, products, and services to get their jobs done. Enterprises need the power of the latest technology to keep up with constantly changing digital environments and a highly mobile and demanding workforce. And although, the two types of IT, controllers (linear, IT-centric, and insular) and transformers (agile, employee-centric, and flexible) have different approaches, they face similar challenges when enlisting the help of vendors that will enable them to focus on the more strategic tasks of understanding their employees’ needs.
