The brand eins & Statista study “Best Management Consultancies 2026” has been published. And we are delighted to once again be ranked among Germany’s top management consultancies.

These results show that our work on effective transformation is paying off. We help companies actively shape change, develop their organizations, and implement digital transformation in a sustainable way.

Effectively Managing Transformation

Companies face major challenges—from technological changes to new forms of collaboration.
We help our clients strategically shape these changes and embed them for the long term. A key factor in this is a clear organizational design that effectively aligns structures, processes, and responsibilities.
This ensures that transformation is not only planned but also successfully implemented in day-to-day operations.

How is the ranking determined?

The brand eins & Statista study is considered one of the most prestigious analyses of the consulting market in Germany and is conducted annually.
For the latest edition, several thousand industry experts and executives were surveyed once again. These include partners, principals, and project managers from consulting firms, as well as senior executives from corporations.

Participants were able to recommend consulting firms in various industries and practice areas. Self-recommendations were excluded, so only the assessments of clients and industry peers were included in the evaluation. Companies with an above-average number of recommendations are included in the list of top performers and recognized accordingly.

Our success is the result of teamwork

For us, this award is, above all, a shared success.

We thank our clients for their trust and our team for their daily dedication. Together, we shape transformation—and build organizations where change succeeds.
