Deep Dive Blue Team: Department of the Interior IT Consolidation (August 6, 2025
Join us on August 6, 2025 at 1:30pm (EST) on Zoom.
The Interior Department is planning sweeping reductions to its administrative and support function workforce, according to several individuals briefed on the plan, and will consolidate those offices away from its component agencies.
Interior will fold areas such as IT, communications, finance, human resources and contracting into the central part of the department, rather than components such as the Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service and National Park Service maintaining their own cadres of staff to provide those services, four employees familiar with the plans said. That will be followed by widespread and significant reductions in force to employees in those offices, leading in some cases to 50% cuts to the relevant workforces.
Interior employees throughout its regional offices and down to the field office, station and park level are expected to feel the impacts of the consolidations.
Each attendee will receive the recording, the slide deck and the attendance list.
