The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has saved more than $ 5 million a year after identifying multiple agencies paid for much more software than they used.
For example, the IRS paid 3,000 software licenses but only 25 years old. After Dodge discovered waste, he reduced the remaining 99% licenses.
“Agency often has more Licenses for software Than employees and licenses are often idle (i.e., but are not installed on any computer), “Dodge wrote in the message on X.” These audits are constantly conducted since the first placement in February. “
The Department of Labor reduced 68% of unused licenses for “Project Planning Planning Software”, and the Securities and Exchange Commission reduced 78% of the remote desktop software for which he paid after the commission’s search, used only 22% of the programs.
