Lets break it down;
EU, need that one for tax breaks, but 2? And why mfg?
US, For the GSA accounts, the gov does not like computers assembled in China shipped to them without getting some value add in a secure country. OK, sure that one counts, but does it need to be a Dell site, no.
Brazil, only way to do it there.
India, probably a sane move for the market there.
Malaysia, really? Old school Dell.
Poland is probably Ireland’s replacement for the EU stuff.
Is seems to me someone at Dell fell a sleep in Operations. The rest of the industry made this move then 5 years ago and for some more then 10 years ago. For Dell, a supply chain expert, this was a huge miss. Wonder if the guy who runs Operation for the last 10 years is still there and fighting this move.
