Reuters reports that the U.S. Navy and Air Force are considering canceling two nearly completed HR software projects. Sources indicate the move is intended to allow companies like Salesforce and Palantir to bid on similar contracts. The projects, which have been in development for 12 years, may be scrapped despite nearing completion, raising questions about efficiency and resource allocation within the Department of Defense. The potential cancellation highlights the competitive landscape of government contracting and the ongoing effort to modernize HR systems.
