Federal government agencies terminated and descoped 67 wasteful contracts over the past five days, which had a ceiling value of $1.4 billion, while saving $648 million in taxpayer funds, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced in an X post on Nov. 8.
The canceled contracts include “a $54k State Dept. training contract for ‘leader as a coach course’, a $456k USAGM broadcasting contract for ‘24/7 FM broadcast service in hosting, operations, technical, and maintenance support in Juba, South Sudan’, and a $1.3M State Dept. education contract for ‘Botswana MI curriculum,’” the post said.
