Vaswani named Dell Services president
Vaswani will be responsible for developing and delivering IT services and business solutions for global corporations and governments. He replaced Steve Schuckenbrock, who is leaving Dell to seek “new opportunities” outside Dell.
Vaswani, the former joint CEO at Wipro, previously led Dell Services’ application and business process outsourcing line. He had left Wipro after its chairman Azim Premji dissolved the dual CEO model, bringing in TK Kurien to replace the joint CEOs.
Girish Paranjpe was the other CEO at Wipro at that time.
“We made huge strides transforming Dell into a leading provider of end-to-end solutions and our services business has been a cornerstone of our progress,” Dell said. Vaswani’s expertise in services and proven track record make him the right leader to continue growing the business, it added.
Dell entered into services in 2007 with the acquisition of Perot Systems for $3.9 billion. Dell Services’ revenue grew 12% to $2.2 billion and represented 14% of the Dell’s business for the fourth quarter of last fiscal.
