The top supply chain consulting firms in the US for 2021

12 May 2021 Consulting.us

Consulting.us has released its first-ever ranking of the top supply chain consulting firms in the United States. 

When the Covid-19 pandemic subsides, the world of supply chain is going to look markedly different. To adapt to the new normal and remain competitive, supply chain leaders need to redesign their supply chains, building in flexibility and agility without weakening competitiveness, and adopt a data-driven approach to enhance supply chain visibility and operational resilience. 

To meet that challenge, leaders often turn to supply chain consultants, who help them design and execute strategies to navigate their most pressing challenges. But with 250+ notable supply chain consulting firms active in the billion-dollar segment of the over $60 billion US consulting industry, identifying those consultancies best equipped to deliver results can be a tricky task.

The top Supply Chain consulting firms  in the US 2021

The 'Top supply chain consulting firms in the US in 2021' list by Consulting.us simplifies this process by showcasing America’s best supply chain consulting firms. The list is compiled through analysis of more than two million US data points spanning insights from both clients and management consultants. 

The data analyzed includes recommendation scores from clients (executives who worked with firms over the last three years) and consultants (peer reviews from partners and consultants), capabilities of consultancies in supply chain (the breadth and depth of offerings), track record of consulting projects, reputation in the marketplace (offline and online), and the quality of thought leadership. 

The inaugural list features some of the largest and best-known global consultancies in the business, with Maine Pointe – a consultancy dedicated to supply chain and operations – punching above its weight to take first place, edging out two of the Big Four giants: Deloitte and EY. The Supply Chain arm of Accenture and Bain & Company round off the top five.
