The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has several key initiatives aimed at modernizing federal technology and software to maximize governmental efficiency and productivity. Here are some of the main projects they are working on:
Software Modernization Initiative: This initiative focuses on improving the quality and efficiency of government-wide software, network infrastructure, and information technology (IT) systems. The goal is to promote interoperability between agency networks and systems, ensure data integrity, and facilitate responsible data collection and synchronization
DOGE Teams: Each federal agency is required to establish a DOGE Team consisting of at least four employees, including a team lead, an engineer, a human resources specialist, and an attorney. These teams will work on implementing the President's DOGE Agenda and coordinate their efforts with the U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization.
Temporary Organization: The U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization is a temporary body within the United States DOGE Service, dedicated to advancing the President's 18-month DOGE agenda. The organization will terminate on July 4, 2026.
Cost-Cutting Measures: Although not explicitly mentioned in the Executive Order, there are suggestions that DOGE may focus on reducing waste, streamlining government operations, and potentially downsizing the federal workforce.
