Description

The Trump Administration is boldly rewriting the landscape of government contracts in the name of speed, efficiency, and its agendas — even if it means breaking a few things along the way. GovExec’s Editor-in-Chief Frank Konkel joins Rapid Response to take listeners inside the recent government contracting tumult, shares trends on where power and money are moving, and how tech firms — and particularly in AI — are putting newfound pressure on legacy providers. So, is Trump actually succeeding in making the government function more like a business? Konkel weighs in, and explores how the redefined relationship between the public and private sector could alter US progress for years to come.
