As your organization grows, simplifying the management of a large, complex, and dispersed PC environment is a necessity. And yet, according to Gartner Research, the cost to deploy a PC is significantly higher than most people expect.
Desktop and notebook standardization, increased speed of hardware and software deployment, and reduced costs are all vital to improving overall service to end users. Lenovo offers the tools, tactics, and technology you need to scale up. We’re not just experts in hardware—we also provide unsurpassed assistance in organization-wide implementation and migration.

“Using Lenovo’s innovative PCs and tools, we lowered data migration time for employees by 75% and completed the transition in just six months.” — Mack Murrell, Vice President of Information Systems, Dow Chemical Company
By streamlining your PC deployment with Lenovo, and relying on Lenovo technologies over other purchased or homegrown tools, you can experience significant savings.
Lenovo used its expertise in software, imaging, and connectivity to deliver Dow’s new hardware on time and under budget. The solution included:
System Migration Assistant (SMA), a powerful, flexible, and highly customizable solution to migrate data as well as user settings and favorites. SMA’s Silent Mode allowed Dow’s IT personnel to automate migrations to a large number of systems and customize the migration process.
Lenovo’s Imaging Technology Center, a global team of experienced engineers, helped the company with the full breadth of image management, from creation and consulting to migration and deployment worldwide.
Dow’s use of ImageUltra™ Builder (IUB) allowed the company to reduce the need for manual application installation, hardware testing, and support. IUB also streamlined Dow’s PC deployment by reducing the number of images to create and manage, and reduced custom image churn due to hardware changes.
Dow streamlined its system updates and connected all of its employees through a system portal known as Productivity Center. With Quick Links, Resource Center, and Message Center it organized the company’s top tasks, frequently used applications, and support tools all at the press of a button.
