FedScoop has reported inconsistencies between officials’ publicly stated savings claims and the figures included on the website. It selected examples of 31 contracts and 12 grants within agencies that had the highest savings reported to review more closely. For more than half of the reported contract savings, DOGE didn’t follow its own methodology for calculations and that methodology itself was limited. “We also could not determine the basis for a portion or all of the DOGE reported savings for many of the 21 contracts we reviewed.” Such unidentified items were more than 50% of the grant savings DOGE reported.
