I can't speak for Deloitte, but can confirm EY has lost contracts.

To the poster above, I'd think Leidos would be less impacted, aren't they almost exclusively defense contracting?

Defense contractors have had year after year of growth. There will be serious cuts to all contractors including defense contractors. It is where a lot of the money is being spent.

Leidos has contracts in almost every federal agency. Doge’s goal is to disrupt the DC prime IT contractors to allow for Silicon Valley to come in. They will most certainly take a hit in time.

Don't the prime contractors have extensive operations all over the country, including in Red states?

I am just having a hard time understanding how folks in congress would be in favor of replacing companies that employ their constituents with companies that still primarily employ people in blue areas and with still 80%+ liberal workforces.

Please shut down Accenture

I hope they are okay. I do think this will impact more consulting services versus staff augmentation, which seems to be what you are describing. My contract was cut yesterday but it was consulting.

Not to mention, there are ton of smaller, contracting firms that are doing day-to-day work for major government entities – running their financial systems, etc.

Know a bunch of people at Leidos, Accenture, Deloitte...and nobody is indicating any cuts.

Agencies have been instructed to cut contracts so like everything going on right now it will just happen suddenly.

They won't cut contracts if their instructions are to reduce federal personnel. They will definitely keep those contractors.

They are shutting down entire agencies, so most contracts related to those agencies will be gone or left in limbo with no one in gov't to administer those programs. Remember that everything is contracted: IT, cleaning services for the buildings that are closing, and so on.

They just don’t know yet. Surprise it is.

They all have task teams preparing for it.

And all the 8as gleefully rubbing their hands at the work they think they’re about to get… 8a is basically DEI.

They know exactly what is going to happen to the local economy, having a factory close in a company town is a well trodden path. They just don’t care.

Not "local" -- the whole country. All of our biggest program sites are in the South. Those will be the first to go.

Our agency has not started cutting contract yet. However, there is a memo reminding everyone not extending any new contract (no exceptions regardless).
