The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), helmed by Elon Musk, has been tasked with optimizing federal processes, cutting redundancies, and improving transparency in government operations.
Now, large consulting firms are in DOGE's crosshairs. The top 10 largest consulting firms that do business with the U.S. government have been called in to "defend the spend" this Friday. These firms represent over $65B in outstanding consulting contracts.
Whether you agree with DOGE's mission or not isn't the point - the U.S. government is the single largest consumer of consulting services in the world, and this steady revenue stream is under threat for some of the world's largest consulting firms.
The Wall Street Journal broke this news - read the original article.
