Next Bussines Day On-Site Response Service: Dell Support Services
Next Bussines Day On-Site Response Service: Dell Support Services
Technology is a significant investment, and it pays to protect your IT systems from costly
downtime. With Dell, you get fast resolution, high uptime, and increased productivity. Dell
puts you back to work fast.
For those times on-site service is required, Dell has the right plan for your business needs.
Dell has developed a variety of on-site service packages tailored to varying customer
requirements for system uptime, beginning with the Next Business Day On-site Response
Service1. Designed to provide a base level of customer security, the Next Business Day
Response Service places a Dell-certified technician at your location the following business
day (if necessary).
Support Procedures
When you contact Dell Technical Support with an issue, we will ask you to participate in
some limited phone-based troubleshooting to identify the root cause of the issue. Dell's focus
on remote troubleshooting can help minimize overall system downtime by getting the issue
quickly fixed remotely or helping us to dispatch the right part (if necessary) - all in an effort to
get your system or Dell printer up and running as quickly as possible with a repaired system
on the first call.
You will help the technician serve you better if you have your service tag number, operating
system version, and peripheral models you are using. Dell Tech Support can then access our
large database for your system or Dell printer and extensive knowledge base.
Let the technician know what error message you are getting and when it occurs, as well as
what steps you may have already taken to solve the problem. If Dell cannot resolve the issue
over the phone, a service call will be placed to dispatch the appropriate part(s) and a service
technician, if necessary.
With Next Business Day Response Service contracts, calls dispatched by Dell Technical Support
before 5:00 PM local customer time will receive a response on the next business day (during your
Principal Period of Maintenance (PM); Monday through Friday, excluding regularly observed
holidays. For calls dispatched after 5:00 PM local customer time, the service technician will take
an additional business day* to arrive at your location. The actual response time on the next
business day is dependent upon parts delivery to the technician for the customer's local area.
Once the part is received, the technician will attempt to call the customer directly to schedule a
specific time that is convenient to deliver the service that day.
- Business day for this service to be performed is defined as Monday through Friday only. If the technician is dispatched
after 5:00 pm on a Friday, the parts will not be dispatched until that following Monday and the on-site service will be
performed the next business day (which would be Tuesday).
