Big Strategy 2011: Consulting Rates and Guidelines for Working with the World's Largest Strategy Specialists

MR - Literally thousands of firms consult in the area of strategy, but a very small number of large firms view strategy as their core focus. This Research Note focuses on "Big Strategy," or who we view as the world's largest strategy specialists. Working with these firms is different. And there are a number of reasons why it is important for consulting clients to understand the differences. This Research Note provides our estimates and perspectives on: 2011 mean and median rates, and rate ranges by category of professional; average strategy engagement duration; unique project characteristics; what makes firms in this category unique and distinct from large multi-line firms providing similar services; and how to effectively maximize engagement value. Note also provides important keys to better understanding how the rate structures of strategy specialists can be assessed and compared to hourly rate structures of other providers of strategy consulting.
