18F are _not_ consultants. They're federal employees with a term limit who are domain experts.

EDIT: See sailfast's comment below. I think we're quibbling over semantics.

A chunk of 18F are consultants to other government agencies and provide their services to government for a 100% cost-reimbursable fee for specific projects, much like a private consulting firm. https://18f.gsa.gov/consulting/ https://pages.18f.gov/joining-18f/who-we-are-hiring/position...
