HP loses massive DWP contract

RIP EDS

After more than 25 years in IT and communications and 10 with EDS its disappointing to see all the hard work and effort the poorly paid EDS’ers have put in go down the drain due to the HP acquisition. I agree with many of the comments about some poor deliveries but EDS has also achieved some great accolades and is no different to IBM Fujitsui and all the others in poor contract delivery in some cases. Im not surprised EDS lost this contract as the HP bean counters steered by Mark Hurd had no structure in there execution of headcount reduction letting good people go without even proper handovers. It was also obvious HP had no idea about service contacts and Mr Hurds bias to his tin shifters was very obvious from the outset. Shame on you Mark Hurd maybe you should loose your job too.
