IDC MarketScape: Deloitte named a leader in global business consulting based on capabilities and strategies

Press release

New York, NY, 28 July 2015 – For the fifth consecutive year, IDC has named Deloitte Consulting member firm practices and advisory businesses globally as a leader in worldwide and regional consulting capabilities and business strategies. “Deloitte is perceived to be the best at challenging corporate culture, directly improving clients' commercial performance, maximizing the value of a project and meeting project timelines, and recommending change or innovation that produce results,” according to MarketScape for Business Consulting 2015 Vendor Analysis – Worldwide*. This announcement comes on the heels of Gartner also ranking Deloitte as the No. 1 global consulting organization based on 2014 market share revenue for the fifth consecutive year. Additionally, Deloitte was recognized by IDC as a leader in the Americas; a leader in EMEA and a Major Player in Asia Pacific*.

“To consistently be viewed by clients and the industry as the trusted, go-to resource for the most complex issues in business is Deloitte’s purest measure of success,” said Jim Moffatt, Deloitte Global Consulting Leader. “Being the leader five years running is a result of the investment and prioritization our organization has made in understanding the intricacies of Deloitte clients’ businesses and what it takes to help them achieve lasting, innovative results while minimizing risk in a rapidly changing marketplace.

“Clients rely on straightforward, meaningful counsel when the stakes are highest; trusted advisors do not simply say what the client wants to hear,” said Moffatt. “From strategy to execution – our network’s purpose and long-term success lies in helping clients transform their businesses and giving them the confidence they need in these radically complex and unpredictable times. With global scale, the right people, the right industry experience, and exceptional depth, Deloitte client teams drive impactful results for clients.”

IDC defines Business Consulting as both management consulting (Strategy & Operations, Human Capital) and business advisory services (Risk, Financial Advisory, Audit & Tax Advisory). IDC excludes both IT advisory and IT implementation. The report assesses the capability and business strategy of the leading business consulting organizations. IDC describes the MarketScape as “a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the characteristics that explain a vendor's success in the marketplace.” In its quantitative analysis, IDC includes revenue from Deloitte Consulting practices and advisory businesses globally.
