EMC Changes CIOs as Dell Pursues Acquisition

ML Krakauer assumed the CIO role at #EMC last week, after serving as executive vice president of business development for global enterprise services and, before that, head of global human resources.

EMC is preparing to merge with #Dell Inc., which in October announced a $67 billion deal to buy the company. Dell also made a CIO change recently, in November confirming that Paul J. Walsh was to leave the company. Mr. Walsh was promoted to CIO in 2014 and had also led Dell’s commerce services. Scott Pittman, who had been leading Dell’s IT infrastructure services, was named interim CIO while the company looks for a permanent replacement.

The companies may draw on Ms. Krakauer’s integration experience at Compaq Computer Corp., when it was acquired by then-Hewlett-Packard Co.in 2002. She was a vice president and general manager in Compaq’s global services business when it was acquired by then-Hewlett-Packard Co. in 2002. She took a similar position at HP after the transaction, until she joined EMC in 2008. At EMC, she has also held executive positions in global services in recent years.
