Coles ends contract with Palantir after 2027
Coles says its contract with Palantir, signed in early 2024, will not extend beyond 2027, ending software access to more than 10 billion rows covering stores, shifts and 120,000 employees. A transition plan is under way. Coles says the system operated inside Coles’ environment for rostering, store operations and supply planning, with no role in CCTV or facial recognition, and it pressed for withdrawal of a shareholder human-rights assessment resolution.
