Federal government agencies terminated and reduced 78 “wasteful” contracts over the past nine days with a ceiling value of $1.9 billion, generating $335 million in savings, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said in a Nov. 23 post on X.
Among the terminated contracts was a $4.3 million IT services contract for “Inflation Reduction Act transformation project management support” at the IRS, a $661,000 Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) IT services contract for “social media monitoring platform subscription,” and a $191,000 U.S. Agency for Global Media contract for “broadcast operations and maintenance in Ethiopia, Africa.”
