CDW Corporation CDW

CDW Company Overview

CDW Corporation is a leading multi-brand provider of information technology solutions, operating primarily in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The company serves business, government, education, and healthcare customers by helping them design, procure, and implement integrated IT solutions. CDW operates within the IT solutions and services industry, acting as an intermediary between customers and major technology manufacturers while also delivering value-added services.

The company’s core revenue drivers include hardware, software, and services related to areas such as cloud computing, cybersecurity, data center infrastructure, networking, and end-user computing. CDW’s strategic positioning is based on its vendor-agnostic model, deep customer relationships, and large-scale procurement capabilities, which allow it to offer tailored solutions rather than proprietary products. Founded in 1984 as a catalog-based reseller, CDW evolved through acquisitions and organic growth into a solutions-oriented IT partner, becoming a publicly traded company in 2013.
