BOSTON—Boston Consulting Group (BCG) was named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Business Consulting Services 2024 Vendor Assessment (Doc #US51113123, June 2024). BCG’s “approach to business consulting services is firmly rooted in delivering tangible value at speed to its clients, through identifying and implementing the right business strategy that maximizes impact and enables competitive advantage,” the report said.
The report provides an in-depth look at 18 providers of business consulting services, evaluating them against 14 criteria divided into two categories: capabilities and strategy. Participating vendors can be placed in one of four categories: Leaders, Major Players, Contenders, or Participants. Based on its performance, BCG was named to the Leaders category.
“We are proud to be recognized by IDC MarketScape as a Leader in business consulting services,” said Dylan Bolden, a BCG managing director and senior partner, and chair of the firm’s functional practice areas. “Our expert teams around the world are committed to helping our clients thrive, unlocking new value, and to delivering long-term, sustainable solutions that create meaningful change.”
The IDC MarketScape report lists several of BCG’s strengths:
- “BCG’s consultants are well trained at pushing their own thinking throughout a project to ensure that clients receive a solution that is always at the cutting edge.”
- BCG’s tech build and design unit, BCG X, is “spread across functional and industry practices so that there isn’t a wall between different consulting teams. BCG collaborates with its clients across the hierarchy, from C-suite members to those working day to day on shop floors, to produce organizational acceptance of what it delivers so that the transformation becomes a new way of working rather than an overlay that is forced onto the organization to accept.”
- “BCG consultants are seen as carefully analyzing client processes, with teams that engage in a broad and deep manner to decipher the full client context and appropriate long-term solution.”
“Go to BCG when you need a comprehensive approach to envision the future and make it a reality through actionable, innovative technologies and solutions based on its multifaceted understanding of digital transformation and the role it plays in driving business growth and efficiency,” the report said.
