Hello, An ImageAssist image will work with most Dell Latitude, Precision and OptiPlex systems. Some XPS and Venue systems as well. The OS must of been offered on the system from the factory for drivers to be available as well. See a complete list of supported systems at this location: en.community.dell.com/.../11438.dell-family-driver-packs:550:0]

I am trying to gather information on a service that Dell might offer -- I've seen references to Dell Image Assist -- not sure if that's the right one.
I want to create a Windows 10 image that is specific to my company, and provide that image to Dell, and, hypothetically speaking for the moment, order 250 Dell OptiPlex 7040 desktops and have Dell apply my custom Windows 10 image to each unit before shipping to me.
End result is that I have an out of the box desktop 90-95% ready to deploy on my network.
I've called Dell several times today and can't get a direct answer regarding this.
Any info is appreciated.

FreedpomPC ,
Your desired state of a single image that is placed on each machine during the manufacturing process which is "90-95% ready to deploy on your network", is exactly why Dell created a free imaging tool. This tool, Dell ImageAssist (or DIA, or ImageAssist) allows you to create one image with your settings, apps, and configuration which can work across all of the Dell OptiPlex, Latitude, and Precision systems.
Letting Dell handle driver management from the factory, the sysprep function, and helping you to simplify the OOBE (Microsoft's Out Of Box Experience) is the primary function of Dell ImageAssist.
Dell ImageAssist also support your local use for break-fix if you are ordering your systems from Dell with your custom image.
