Management Consulting

Management Consulting firms provide a number of advantages including new skill-sets, upgraded talent, a flexible workforce, fresh perspective, etc. Given these advantages, it is not surprising that the industry’s services are popular, representing a $241b market according to IBISWorld, and growing (+4% over the last 5 years). Further, the number of management consulting businesses has grown by 3% over that same time period. Despite an increasing number of business openings in the space, M&A activity has been brisk as smaller firms attempt to achieve scale to compete for larger, and more lucrative contracts.
