First paragraph says it's sysv based, second says it's bsd based.
Really, the old versios were bsd IIRC but at least from 6.x on they have been sysv. This is the common way, not an exceptional one.

The IRIX® operating system is the leading technical high-performance 64-bit operating system based on industry-standard UNIX®. IRIX® 6.5 offers system scalability and binary compatibility across the MIPS® processor-based family of platforms and is compliant with UNIX® System V Release 4 and The Open Group's many standards, including UNIX 95 and POSIX®.

I removed this statement: SGI has retired IRIX and the MIPS architecture in favor of Linux on Itanium, it is however expected that IRIX support will continue for a while longer. This is wrong. According to the SGI website, IRIX® 6.5.29 has been released and is shipping with all new systems from SGI worldwide manufacturing centers. ( sgi.com). Sietse 15:12, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

The article makes exactly one use of the string HPE. Perhaps it refers to Hewlett Packard Enterprise. The sentence about Hewlett Packard Enterprise currently reads:
As of 2016, due to the bankruptcy of Silicon Graphics in 2009 and its subsequent purchase by Rackable Systems, which was later purchased by HP Enterprise in 2016, no SGI-badged hardware produced after 2007 is capable of running IRIX, instead designed to run Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, based on either IA-64 or x86-64 architecture.
I'm sure the sentence is long enough to accommodate a few additional characters to introduce HPE. For example, it could read:
As of 2016, due to the bankruptcy of Silicon Graphics in 2009 and its subsequent purchase by Rackable Systems, which was later purchased by HP Enterprise ("HPE") in 2016, no SGI-badged hardware produced after 2007 is capable of running IRIX, instead designed to run Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, based on either IA-64 or x86-64 architecture.
Or, it might even be possible to break up the sentence into several pieces.
