"Dell recently made a major announcement about a location in Oklahoma City. It is one of the customer care center which they need to propel their long term growth. They made that decision looking at 122 cities in North and South America. The critical factor to Dell was their access and sustainability to workforce. And this particular tool – Zoom Prospector – helped us show them specifically the attributes of the labor force at multiple sites within the central part of the state. So had we not had this tool I think we would have struggled to try to put those pictures together for Dell."
