Consulting firm execs meet with Trump officials to save contracts, WSJ reports

Consulting firm executives are meeting with Trump administration officials to defend their government contracts ahead of the deadline for government agencies to justify major consulting contracts, The Wall Street Journal’s Chip Cutter reports. GSA has asked procurement officials to list and justify consulting contracts from 10 companies, including Booz Allen (BAH), Accenture (ACN), Guidehouse and others, and consulting firms are being asked to “defend the spend,” by explaining which of their existing projects they see as mission critical to the government’s goals, and which could be cut, Cutter writes.
