We got a look at 'Project Maverick,' Dell's top-secret plan to overhaul its systems for the AI future
"But despite its secrecy, "Project Maverick," as it is codenamed, isn't a revolutionary piece of hardware or groundbreaking new technology. It's Dell's plan to overhaul the company's operations and streamline all systems, data, and processes into a standardized platform. Dell sees this transformation as "critical" for its AI strategy and future success, and the company has brought on a team of Deloitte consultants to help guide the project, internal documents about the project obtained by Business Insider show."
"'The 'game' is changing - we must be far more nimble, decisive, and quick,' one internal document says. 'What made us successful in the past won't take us where we need to go.' Documents seen by Business Insider include an onboarding presentation and a 'guidance and resources' document uploaded to the project SharePoint, describing its scope and intended outcomes. Business Insider has also seen an NDA agreement sent to a Dell employee."
Project Maverick is a confidential Dell initiative to modernize and standardize the company's IT systems, data, and processes into a single platform. The effort aims to replace a sprawling environment of roughly 4,700 applications, 70,000 servers, and more than 10,000 databases that are blocking agility. The program requires NDAs and limited communications for participating employees. Deloitte consultants have been engaged to guide transformation work. The project positions standardized systems as essential to Dell's AI strategy and future competitiveness. Internal materials emphasize the need for greater nimbleness, decisiveness, and speed to meet changing market demands.
