eSN Exclusive: IBM in crosshairs as SLD targets eRate infractions
SLD spokesman Mel Blackwell confirmed for eSchool News that the service provider in question is IBM Corp. IBM is listed on applications requesting more than $1 billion in 2002 eRate funding, according to eRate consulting firm Funds for Learning LLC, but Blackwell said it’s unclear at this point how many of these applications will be affected by the agency’s announcement, or how much money is at stake.
