DOGE has initiated a review of federal agencies' contracts with ten major consulting firms, emphasizing cost reduction and accountability. The General Services Administration (GSA) has mandated agencies to justify their consulting contracts by March 7, requiring detailed explanations for essential services. This effort, aligned with the Trump-Vance Administration's commitment to eliminate waste, targets the substantial fees these firms collect from government contracts. Notably, firms like Booz Allen Hamilton and Leidos Holdings heavily depend on federal revenue, raising questions about the efficiency and necessity of such expenditures.
Federal agencies have until March 7 to submit reviews of their existing contracts with 10 major firms, focusing on cost-cutting efforts amidst fraud prevention.
The GSA has requested procurement officials to substantiate the necessity of their consulting contracts, marking a significant push to evaluate federal spending.
