whitepaper Reducing IT resource needs and service costs through Intel Core 2 processor with vPro technology2008-02-13 Intel
  This is a particularly compelling whitepaper on how Intel University's techs opeerate in a demanding environment of servicing 800 PCs at over 30 sites across 3 continents. Weekly re-imaging of the training rooms is required for training configurations, and over 460 full training-room rebuilds were performed per year. In this environment, the cost of maintaining a training room is significantly higher than that of managing a comparably sized business.

Key findings from TCO analysis:
  • Break-even point achieved in 1.5 years.
  • ROI of 150% realized in year 2.
  • Reduced service costs by 30% to 81%.
Intel used the improved remote diagnosis and repair capabilities built into the PCs to speed up system image rebuilds and reduce service costs by 30% in year 1 and 81% in year 2. Intel used the same capabilities to reduce task time and costs for software repair and application deployment by 75%. In two years, Intel University is saving over $91,000 on image rebuilds alone.

whitepaper 21st-century-learning Infrastructure Supported by Intel vPro Technology: Viglen helps Green School drive innovation in learning2008-07-17 Intel
  Established in 1796, the Green School - located on green fields in the heart of Hounslow - appears to be a school with tradition at heart. After talking to Jack Mayhew, Assistant Head Teacher at the Green School, it becomes clear that the school not only takes tradition seriously, it is also committed to driving innovation and supporting student potential using the latest technology.

When the school's computer fleet came to the end of its life cycle in 2007, Mayhew saw it as an opportunity to transform its existing information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure. "The UK Government requires all students to have access to teaching and learning resources on a computer by 2010. I wanted to ensure that our systems were set up to accommodate rapid ICT expansion, without draining our financial resources," he says.
