Opportunities will emerge after the dust settles from DOGE’s early actions

After an unprecedented four-year bull market in federal IT spending, the Trump administration and its Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have sparked widespread fear, uncertainty and doubt about the near-term future of the federal IT and professional services sector.

Shortly after the presidential inauguration, the General Services Administration began reviewing ongoing programs, and DOGE canceled thousands of IT and professional services contracts it deemed “non-mission critical.” This move sent shockwaves through the entire ecosystem of federal IT contractors and their partners. Since that time, federal technology vendors — particularly advisory-led firms — have been waiting anxiously for greater clarity and transparency around the Trump administration’s IT budget priorities.

Join Senior Analyst John Caucis and Analyst James Wichert Thursday, June 19, 2025, for a live discussion and Q&A on current disruptions to federal IT and professional services vendors’ order books and business development. Additionally, the team will look at how the administration’s plan to aggressively leverage digital technologies to make the federal government smarter and more efficient could have a long-term upside for the federal IT community and its commercially centric AI, analytics, cloud and telecom partners.

In this free session on expectations for federal IT vendors in 2H25 you’ll learn:

The impact of Trump’s second term and DOGE initiatives on federal IT contractors so far
How federal IT vendors are pivoting to support the Trump administration’s emerging priorities in AI, cloud, data science, defense technologies, quantum computing and security
The implications of shifting federal IT spending patterns and priorities for federal systems integrators’ alliances with ISVs, cloud hyperscalers, OEMs, telecom providers and others
