This report provides an analysis of women serving at various levels of consulting service providers, with a special focus on related efforts of the Big Four and Accenture. We also provide analysis on diversity in the private equity and venture capital industries, and the challenges facing early stage companies across a number of other industries. Our analysis of the consulting sector should be viewed as a best-case example since the efforts of the Big Four and Accenture are significant, and these service providers have devoted more resources than most companies toward addressing the challenge of gender equality in hiring and advancement.

Most organizations are struggling today with an unfamiliar reality, where businesses and public service organizations must continue to deliver products and services during a global pandemic. Face-to-face contact is minimized, even eliminated, in many jurisdictions. To help clients and firms better understand how this may impact consulting rates, this report updates our analysis of rate differentials between services provided on a client's premises, and those provided by consulting staff located off site. Where firms offer these two rate alternatives, a second set of rates is provided for services performed from the consulting firm's offices or other off-site facilities, in addition to the standard rate schedule for services performed on the client site. This report provides results of MR's 2020 study of rate differentials. Master services agreements for 18 location-based rating schemes from 16 firms were analyzed for 2020 rates, contrasting these results with trends detailed in our 201...
