PA's German experts speak the clients´ language
Big management consultancies do not always deliver better services, says a recent independent German survey. Only half of the 140 German company managers questioned in this survey had positive experiences of successful projects with the 'big' consultancies.
The survey, conducted by the German Scientific Association for Management and Consulting, hails PA Consulting Group as a 'hidden champion' of the consultancy profession; the survey included the market leaders McKinsey and Roland Berger. In the consulting fields of technology and innovation, information technology, value management and implementation assistance, the majority of managers surveyed said that they prefer the competence of specialist consultancies such as PA.
PA is known in Germany as the market leader for technology and innovation management consulting (seen as having a ‘high’ and a ‘very high’ competency by 53% of the interviewees). In the field of implementation management and assistance PA was ranked second-highest out of all the consultancies covered in the survey.
