Trump gives DOGE tech modernization mission
Briefly

President Trump has formally enhanced the US Digital Service by rebranding it as the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). This initiative, spearheaded by Musk, aims to streamline government operations through modern technology and administrative reforms. While cost-cutting isn’t the main focus stated in the Executive Order, DOGE is tasked with modernizing federal software and IT systems to improve efficiency. The restructuring also indicates that DOGE will maintain links with the USDS, ensuring tasks are in alignment with the President's goals for technological upgrades in federal services throughout its initial term.
DOGE's tech-centric mission is to modernize federal technology and software to maximize efficiency and productivity, cutting down governmental inefficiencies.
The Executive Order does not explicitly mention cost-cutting but emphasizes improving quality and efficiency across government-wide software and IT systems.
