Dell Command Update is a program which can be installed via Software Center if not already installed on the machine. The purpose of this application is to have a single place to install various hardware updates such as (but not limited to) the BIOS, Wi-Fi / Bluetooth drivers, and Graphics drivers.
The goal of installing these updates is to alleviate certain hardware issues in newer and older machines.
Below are screenshots on what the application looks like, and the process of installing certain updates:
