K-12 and Higher Education Institutions like yours are striving to implement IT strategies that ensure high-quality education experiences for all students with minimal disruptions.

Custom BIOS Service
Tailor BIOS settings for your Organizational Needs
High quality customized BIOS settings are applied to your PCs during manufacturing, according to your exact network and security needs.
- Work with the Lenovo Imaging Technology Center to customize each setting in the BIOS such as setting administrative passwords, changing the boot order of devices and enabling/disabling output devices like USB ports.
- We will capture your custom BIOS requirements, as defined by you, and send a special file to manufacturing so it can be deployed on your systems along with your custom image. You can even choose to have your school's logo placed in the background view as the system is booting up.
- The result is that you have a high-quality custom BIOS tailored to your exact security and network needs before the systems leave Lenovo manufacturing.
- This will provide greater value to you by reallocating your technician time to more strategic IT initiatives.
