Another was a $5.2 million contract with the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, the human resources agency for the federal government, to "provide strategic advisory and assistance to improve and transform current processes and organizational systems".

DOGE recently announced $51 million in cuts from the U.S. African Development Foundation, which included hundreds of thousands of dollars for marketing shea butter and pineapple juice, as well as mango drying facilities.

Americans recently shared mixed reviews of the transparency group. Fox News Digital conducted interviews in Knoxville, Tennessee; Washington, D.C.; Detroit, Michigan; and Houston, Texas, where citizens provided reactions and graded its ongoing efforts.

Some criticized DOGE for "trying to do their job with a sledgehammer," while others praised the group for looking into government waste.
