Covid-19 Analysis of Strategy Consulting Market
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a wide-ranging impact, including a significant influence on the worldwide consulting business. To recover from the effects of the pandemic, experts are developing new job prospects and company strategies to adapt to the post-pandemic environment. The imminent impact of the pandemic on the global economy may present consulting businesses with some intriguing prospects. However, most firms are likely to strive to spend available resources in present operations that require the greatest attention, rather than giving resources to consultants at this moment. For example, the travel and leisure business, which has been heavily damaged, may be unwilling to invest in consultants at this time. On the contrary, the healthcare industry, which is under stress as a result of the epidemic, may be more willing to seek consultancy help in the future. The impact would also differ by area. For example, in Europe, where several nations have been badly afflicted, consulting assignments have been paused in comparison to places such as Africa and the Middle East, which have been relatively less affected by the virus pandemic.
Typically, consulting businesses rely substantially on travel and in-person client interactions. They also adhere to strict timeframes for their commitments. Traditional modes of operation, on the other hand, will have to adapt to the post-pandemic reality. With COVID-19 showing no signs of abating, worldwide governments and regulatory organizations are implementing new and more draconian social distancing and quarantine measures. This epidemic is driving huge alterations in consumer demand, behavior, and expectations in the consulting industry throughout the world. Most consultants spend 80 percent of their working life away from home, travelling across the world to assist their customers with a range of advising concerns, and thus are more prone to be victims of viral propagation. The economic downturn caused by the epidemic has had a significant impact on the income of consulting businesses. Projects have also been delayed, with their scope decreased or abandoned entirely, resulting in income losses.
Strategy Consulting Market Dynamics
Consultants, who are also known as strategic consultants, provide strategy consulting services, offering expert advice on highly important decisions that mostly turn out to deliver the best results for businesses. Strategy consulting services are required in commercial sectors including the BFSI, automotive, and IT & telecommunication. In addition, the rising demand for customer-centric consulting services and the need for gaining and maintaining competitive advantage are some of the driving factors of the global strategy consulting market. Disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation are expected to create opportunities for the global strategy consulting market players during the forecast period. However, the lack of skilled workforce for operating sophisticated analytical tools is expected to limit the market growth during the next few years.
Drivers
Organizations across industry verticals have been witnessing various challenges such as intense competition and rapidly changing business models. In recent years, e-commerce companies such as Amazon, Alibaba, e-Bay, Flipkart are witnessing cut-throat competition both regionally and globally. Also, rapidly changing customer purchasing patterns have also intensified the rivalry in the industry. Thus, companies need expertise advisory and consulting teams, who offer unique solutions. Such solutions include a deep understanding of customer purchasing patterns and enable efficient, scalable, and sustainable operations. The collaborative approach of consulting firms helps companies maintain an edge over competitors using the domain expertise gained for offer effective solutions. For instance, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), one of the globally recognized consulting firms, has partnered with Amazon Web Services to offer distinctive capabilities, such as retail interface design, customer relationship management, and advanced technological innovation. This partnership has helped Amazon proactively manage changes in the marketplace and restructure its business models to offer operational excellence. Thus, the need for competitive advantage is expected to drive the growth of the global strategy consulting market during the forecast period.
RESTRAINTS
Consulting firms deliver comprehensive insights to clients for gaining better understanding of the market conditions. However, understanding such insights require deep knowledge of analytical tools, the use of which is usually limited. Both developed and developing countries are witnessing a lack of experts who possess a deep understanding of analytics beneficial for consulting purposes and the right skills to deliver the service. Thus, the lack of skilled workforce is expected to restrain the growth of the global strategy consulting market during the during period.
OPPORTUNITY
Disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation have gained considerable popularity in consulting services and play a crucial role in three areas of information, streamlining administration task, and improving productivity. Firstly, integrating AI technology in the processes of consulting helps in gathering a large amount of unstructured data from various business functions such as marketing, sales, and finance. This information plays a critical role for consultants and marketers to identify new revenue streams to develop effective strategies for marketing and advertising campaigns.
