Is Tech consulting more strategy consulting or more IT implementation?

Hi Aditya,

Great question!

The answer is both :)

At MBB you're more likely to get strategy, and at the accounting firms (Deloitte, Accenture, EY) you're more likely to get IT implementation.

However, it does depend. For example, at BCG, I was part of a multi-year digitization program for a client...by its very nature this had elements of both pure strategy and implementation.

In summary, tech consulting really can be done at the high (strategic) level or low (implementation) level. Tech is more of a function/vertical than anything.

Hello!

Honestly, it´s both! 

You can have projects that are purely strategy, and others that are pure implementation. Others, for sure, in the middle.

In my experience, I would say I did 60% implementation and 40% strategy, but changes a lot from case to case. 

Hope it helps!

Best, 

Clara

Hi Aditya,

The short answer to question is that consulting is more as IT and very different from the classic strategy consulting. The range of the firms is also different. So the top firm are Accenture and Capgemini consulting. 

I hope it helps,
