H. Ross Perot

H. Ross Perot possessed an incredibly intense, highly disciplined background forged at the United States Naval Academy and honed on the hyper-competitive sales floors of IBM. This deeply entrenched background in military-grade operational discipline and elite corporate sales gave him the exact aggressive, uncompromising executive framework required to pioneer and completely dominate the massive global IT outsourcing industry.

H. Ross Perot was a massive American billionaire, politician, and the legendary founder of Electronic Data Systems (EDS), the other massive corporate entity that merged to form DXC Technology. A former top IBM salesman, Perot famously realized that clients needed help operating their computers just as much as they needed the hardware. In 1962, he founded EDS, completely inventing the modern IT outsourcing and facilities management industry. Under his incredibly intense, quasi-military leadership, EDS secured massive contracts processing Medicare and Medicaid claims, turning Perot into a massive billionaire. Following General Motors' acquisition of EDS, and its subsequent acquisition by Hewlett Packard Enterprise, the massive EDS infrastructure ultimately merged with CSC to birth the DXC Technology empire.
