Abstract
Dell, Inc. is a multinational technology corporation that develops, manufactures, sells and supports PC (Personal Computers) and other computer products. The multinational is based in Round Rock, Texas. Risk management is now recognized as a key to the success or failure of projects. Even the major projects or programs, whatever their issues (like Ariane 5, Hubble, Airbus A380, etc) are at risk if their players are not all convinced of the need to manage risk, and if they did not give the true means to do so. The field is still mainly that of the expert, and the methods used were often inadequate, as they were too closely linked to humans (expert risk management, a domain expert). Risk management is now one of the most popular subjects to address project management in general, and to provide an explanation, unfortunately, in hindsight, of the problems encountered by the projects. Dell is the number one in the world in direct-sales computer vendors and provides a broad range of computer products for the consumer and enterprise markets.
