18、ly new industry,major industryfirms are among the most respectedbusinesses in the world,and theiradvice is routinely sought by thecorporate and governmental sectors.With many companies facing post-recessionchanges,demand for consultants will strengthenIn the five years to 2011,industryrevenue has in

19、creased at an averageannual rate of 0.7%to$165.5 billion.Compared with the industrys overallgrowth during the past 10 years,thisfive-year rate is somewhat sluggish,reflecting the extent of the recenteconomic downturn.The recessionseffect on industry revenue in 2008 and2009 caused sales to plummet by

20、 4.3%and 3.0%,respectively,as manyprojects were deferred or canceled.Inaddition to decreasing revenue,firmslaid off employees,causing industry,employment to fall by 7.5%in 2008and 4.0%in 2009.Prior to 2008 and 2009,theManagement Consulting industry wascountercyclical to overall economicmovements sin

21、ce companies often relyon consultants to improve their businessstrategies and services.The recessionupended this pattern by causing nearlyevery industry to reduce its consultingbudget.Furthermore,the recessiondecreased industry revenue because thecost of services was revaluated in thewake of declini

22、ng corporate profit.As theeconomy returns to growth and demandfor consulting services rises again,industry revenue is expected to grow2.4%in 2011.Improved demand will alsoreduce pricing pressures,causing profitto increase to 8.9%during the year,upfrom 5.9%in 2009.In the five years to 2016,industryre

23、venue is projected to increase at anannual average rate of 4.2%to$203.6billion.In the aftermath of the recession,many industries will face continuedrestructuring,increased regulation andchanges in the consumer landscape overthe next five years.Their new needs willlikely be excellent news for special

31、f economic conditions.As such,theManagement Consulting industry oftenmoves against economic cycles becausecompanies rely on consultants to improvetheir businesses strategy and services.During a boom,businesses useconsultants to maximize profit andincrease market share.On the otherhand,poor economic

32、conditions tend toincrease demand because clients hope toshield themselves and their companiesfrom the adverse effects of a downturn.,Unfortunately for managementconsultants,this trend changed duringthe recent recession,which affectednearly every industry.In 2008 and2009,industry revenue declined by

33、4.3%and 3.0%,respectively.As aresult,the industry has experiencedonly marginal growth in the five yearsto 2011,with revenue estimated toincrease at an annual average rate of0.7%,totaling$165.5 billion.Duringthe recession,only defense and securityconsulting continued to grow,largelydue to the counter

34、cyclical nature ofthese industries.Some nonprofit,7,WWW.IBISWORLD.COM Industry Performance,Management Consulting in the US September 2011,Current Performancecontinued,firms also turned to managementconsultants to improve operations;however,a large portion of this work,was performed on a pro-bono bas

36、Management Consulting industryslargest customer.However,this marketwas hit hardest by Wall Streets collapse,and many firms have been frugal inemploying outside assistance,a factorthat has contributed to slow industrygrowth in 2010 and 2011.Revenue isexpected to increase 2.4%in 2011.Despite this slow

37、 growth,countercyclical work has helpedmitigate losses that other industrieshave recently experienced.Forexample,consulting firms withexpertise in restructuring performedwell in the recessionary environment.As the recession caused more firms to,The recession broughtabout a revaluation ofthe cost of

39、performedstrongly because of the large numberof layoffs that occurred during andfollowing the recession.Such firmshelped companies reduce the cost oflabor by deciding on the type andsize of layoffs.,Internal consulting groups,Many multinational corporations haveset up their own corporate consultingg

40、roups since 2005.These managementconsultants are hired internally throughthe corporation or from external sources.Such internal consulting groups areformed around practice areas thatinclude organizational development andstrategic consulting and implementationof new business proposals.The development

41、 of internalconsulting groups contains severaladvantages for an organization,includingmore in-depth knowledge about thecorporations strategic objectives.Unlikeoutside management consultants whofocus on a variety of different companies,internal management consultants can,better tailor their knowledge

42、 and servicesto the organization.Also,internalconsultants are able to keep sensitiveinformation private,and the cost ofinternal management consulting is oftencheaper than third parties.Some third-party consultants havebeen criticized for their cost and thesolutions that they provide.Managementconsul

43、tants have also been charged withthe overuse of jargon and stating theobvious during their engagements.Others were accused of offeringstandardized solutions when marketingcustomized solutions to a clientsproblem.Moreover,some industry firmshave increasingly moved away from themodel of engaging one c

45、 boostrevenue because of increasedcompetition in the industry.Despite these common criticisms,many organizations continue to hiremanagement-consulting firms becausethe benefits typically outweigh the cost.As the economy slowed and companiesrevenue dried up,many consulting firmsreduced staff numbers.

46、In 2011,IBISWorld estimates the industryemploys about 1.0 million people,representing a five-year average annualdecline of 1.1%.This trend is due tofalling demand and changingrequirements from clients over theperiod.Because of decreased demand forservices,management consultant firmscould do with few

47、er employees.Senioremployees were laid off,and the numberof incoming junior employees waslimited.Employee numbers increased in2006 and 2007 when the economy wasstill strong,and many management-consulting companies experienced recordrevenue because there was more demandfor work during that period.As
