Top Consulting Firms Of 2025 Announced

(MENAFN- PR Newswire)

AUSTIN, Texas, March 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Management Consulted, the world's largest consulting news platform with over 4M readers and listeners annually, is thrilled to announce the release of its 2025 Top Consulting Firms ranking. Drawing on over 15 years of industry insights, extensive surveys, and Management Consulted's recent 2025 Consulting Salary Report , this year's ranking spotlights the world's 40 top management consulting firms – from established leaders to up-and-coming challengers.

This year's ranking reveals emerging contenders breaking onto the list – like Syneos Health Consulting – while some legacy firms, especially those serving the public sector including Booz Allen Hamilton, got knocked off because prestige and compensation are taking a hit relative to the market. Firms that are taking advantage of outsized growth in key areas like healthcare, tech, financial services, and supply chain are coming out ahead. And for the first time in ranking history, a government agency – the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE ) – has made the list.

The ranking – measured across 7 key criteria – offers a window into a rapidly evolving consulting landscape. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping how firms approach growth, hiring, and service delivery. For example, many firms are adjusting their talent mix, hiring more lower-priced undergraduates over higher-priced MBAs – reflecting the focus on margin expansion that pervades the industry. These trends underscore the industry's need for adaptability and innovation as firms leverage AI to enhance services and streamline operations. The 2025 ranking captures these shifts, painting a picture of an industry at the beginning of a transformation.

Additionally, the ranking recognizes the growing influence of internal strategy groups, which are increasingly competing with traditional consulting firms. To reflect this shift, we've introduced a new Internal Consulting category, featuring three stellar groups at name-brand companies.

The 2025 Top Consulting Firms Ranking is your definitive guide to the world's top consultancies. Explore the full list and discover the trends shaping the industry.
