Maryland Gov. Wes Moore has spoken broadly about the state’s plans for the incoming Trump administration. The governor and his team will get advice from consultants with Accenture, at a cost of $190,000.

As Gov. Wes Moore prepares to cope with another Donald Trump presidential administration — which could cause upheaval in infrastructure, immigration and federal jobs — he’ll get help from private consultants at the cost of $190,000.

The state government entered into a contract this month with Accenture, an international management and technology consulting firm.

Accenture will research Trump’s proposed agenda and how it will affect the state’s priorities and programs, according to a two-page purchasing agreement between the state and the firm.
