GSA tech shop asks employees to submit daily updates
Nextgov/FCW - All Content ·
Internal emails say Justin Adelman, a U.S. Tech Force fellow, is now leading America.gov efforts with Sam Corcos’ oversight.
The General Services Administration is now requiring certain employees to submit daily updates on what they worked on — echoing the Department of Government Efficiency’s request for federal workers to submit five things they did over the course of a week — according to two emails obtained by Nextgov/FCW .
One of the emails states that Technology Transformation Services employees have until 6 pm local time to submit daily updates to ttsdailies@gsa.gov . Those messages should include clear bullet points detailing what employees worked on that day, what they plan to work on the following day and any “blockers” that hindered their progress, according to the first email.
The requirement starts Monday and “failure to comply may result in adverse action,” according to a second email signed by Sam Corcos, a DOGE alum and senior GSA official .
A GSA spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment by publication.
“The purpose of these updates is to help us better understand what everyone is working on, give TTS Front Office a clearer picture of progress across the organization and identify any blockers or dependencies where we may be able to help,” according to the email signed by Corcos.
His message also states that Justin Adelman is now leading work on America.gov — the Trump administration’s artificial intelligence-powered digital front door — with Corcos’ oversight. Adelman has worked on technology projects, including the IRS mobile app and AI projects at the Treasury Department, the email states.
Adelman’s LinkedIn profile shows he became a U.S. Tech Force fellow in June. He also previously co-founded technology companies and was a private sector engineer for Booz Allen Hamilton and VT Group.
