EDS EDS (Electronic Data Systems) - Corporate Profile [LAST UPDATED OCTOBER 2002] Click ahead to the Economic Profile section Click ahead to the Political Profile section Click ahead to the Social Profile section Click Ahead to the Stakeholder Profile section Click Ahead to the Quotations section (For background information on how these sections are organized, click here) 1. Organizational Profile According to their website: “EDS, the leading global services company, provides strategy, implementation and hosting for clients managing the business and technology complexities of the digital economy. EDS brings together the world’s best technologies to address critical client business imperatives.” They provide information technology services to various businesses and governments. Regarding governments, this includes such areas as welfare provision, Medicaid provision, U.S. Armed Forces Infrastructure, security systems management,… This is originally the company that made Ross Perot rich, as he is the founder. EDS made its money as the ‘original’ private contractor for government and Perot invested heavily in his political connections to do so. This included direct contacts in the Nixon administration and things such as Perot being a consultant for EDS’s first Medicare client Texas Blue Cross. Perot has since broken away from EDS, though EDS continues to be a major provider of outsourced government services, including, as mentioned above, being a major player in welfare and Medicaid provision, which is the focus of this profile. On September 18th 2002, EDS announced that its earnings per share for the quarter ending September 30th were likely to be much lower than previously stated. This caused EDS' share price to fall dramatically, losing more than half its value the following day and fell to as far down ad $10.09 on September 24th. -

HP and the Occupation
HP and the Occupation In December 2009, the Israeli Knesset passed a law allowing for the creation of a biometric database of the inhabitants of Israel. As of January 2013, the program is in its initial testing stage. On December 1, 2008, the American corporation Hewlett- Packard won the contract for the development and dispersal of 5 million biometric identification cards as well as the creation and maintenance of the biometric database, a year before the law was passed. The contract was worth 270 million New Israeli Shekels (NIS), or $72 million. In that same month, an HP subsidiary, Electronic Data Systems (EDS), won a yearly 8 million NIS contract for the systemization of biometric data and the installation of the biometric data system in government offices that would issue the ID cards. The political and philosophical implications of the creation of such a thorough biometric database for a nation’s citizenry are complex and worthy of exhaustive discussion, but the implications of the creation of the same system for a population that has been militarily occupied for over 40 years and has no say in its occupier’s government deserves international outcry. There already is a biometric database for the Palestinians, the use of which is oppressive and a serious concern for whatever hope of peace that remains. Biometrics and Restrictions on Palestinian Movement: The Basel System Israeli officials contend that the separation wall, which snakes through the occupied West Bank dissecting agricultural lands from their owners, and the arduous, congested checkpoints that serve as the only permeable entry points for Palestinians laboring in Israel, are necessary and simply intended for security. -
