Company Background

EDS is a leading global technology services company delivering business solutions to its clients. EDS founded the information technology outsourcing industry more than 45 years ago. EDS from its evolution of a $1000 investment has grown into a company with a 20 Billion dollar revenue company. The company delivers a broad selection of information technology and business process outsourcing services to clients in the manufacturing, financial services, healthcare, communications, energy, transportation, and consumer and retail industries and to governments around the world.

EDS also was the earliest to develop:

• A method for using ATMs to transfer and deliver cash
• A text-analysis tool that assesses documents' relevance to specific search criteria
• A device that automatically sorts airline tickets. EDS built on this invention to command a leadership position in the airline-travel, agent ticket-clearing market during the 1980s
