Top consulting firms in France by expertise and industry

France’s €8 billion management consulting industry is home to thousands of consulting firms, spanning well known international consultancies and French-origin consulting giants to local specialist players and boutiques punching above their weight. Meet France’s top consulting firms. 

Clients are continuously on the lookout for the best consulting firms to work with on their most pressing challenges, and similarly, France’s consultants relish working at the top consulting firms in their field of expertise. But with over 1,000 consulting firms (excluding sole proprietorships) active in the country, tapping the right consulting firm can sometimes be like finding a needle in a haystack. 

Building on the feedback from 800 decision-makers (consultancy clients) and 4,300 consultants, analysis of company reputation and client satisfaction provides an in-depth view of which French consulting firms belong to the industry’s crème de la crème. The list of leading consulting firms by industry and area of expertise comprises over 100 consultancies with a physical presence in France, with many of the usual suspects holding the top spots. Across the board, the consulting firms that command the highest number of positions in the list are: the world’s three largest strategy consulting firms of McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Bain & Company, the Big Five of Accenture, Deloitte, EY, KPMG and PwC, local-origin players Capgemini Invent and Wavestone. 

German-origin Roland Berger also ranks among the top performers, thanks to its traditionally strong presence in France and Francophone counties. Hot on the of France’s consulting frontrunners are a cohort of international consulting firms such as Atos Consulting (the consulting arm of IT services firm Atos) Eurogroup Consulting (a French-origin pan-European consulting firm) and Kearney (formerly A.T. Kearney).

About France’s consulting industry

With revenues of over €8 billion, France is Europe’s third largest consulting industry, trailing just the Germany and the United Kingdom. According to data from Syntec Conseil, France’s association for consulting firms, the sector’s most prestigious segment strategy consulting – the field of consulting focused on working with executives and senior management on their most strategic problems – accounts for around one fifth of the market.

Human capital services, which includes compensation & benefits, change management and HR transformation, is the country’s largest services line in fee income, at around a quarter of the industry, while operations consulting and finance & risk make up another quarter. Consulting’s fastest growing line of work, digital and technology, now represents one fifth of the market, but is rapidly expanding its share as clients accelerate their shift to digitisation and digital ways of working.

About the top consulting firms analysis

The ranking presented by Consultancy.eu is based on two surveys conducted by Capital and Statista. The first survey polled 4,300 consultants to identify which consulting firms enjoy the best reputation among peers, across nearly thirty areas of expertise and industries. The second survey asked 800 consultancy clients – (senior) managers who have hired consultants in the past years – to provide a recommendation score for the consulting firm they have worked with.

The amalgamation of the two inputs resulted in an overall score on a 5-point scale, with 1 star the lowest score and 5 stars the top score. To separate the wheat from the chaff, only firms with 3 stars are more are included in the top listing. In the case consulting firms are tied with the same number of stars, then they are listed in alphabetical order.
