DOHA: EY is the number 1 ranked organisation among all major management consultancy firms in the GCC for the quality of its business transformation capabilities, according to a recent report published by Source, which gathers feedback from clients on their perceptions of all consulting organisations operating in the GCC. 
Source is a provider of research on the management consulting market in Europe and the Middle East, which assesses and compares the reputation of consulting firms as seen by clients. The assessment is based on over 500 responses from executives, directors, and senior managers across the GCC, all of whom have extensively used consulting services in the past year and represent a wide range of industries and business functions. 
Gerard Gallagher (pictured), Mena Consulting Leader, EY, said: “We are really proud of being number 1 in delivering successful end-to-end business and risk transformational projects at a time when it really matters to our clients. In times of economic change, governments and companies alike look to transform their strategy, people, processes and technology in order to enhance their performance and manage risk. Our legacy of more than 90 years in the region, is built on helping our clients delivering their most pressing challenges.”
EY was consistently the highest ranked organisation for value and overall quality of services, particularly in financial management.
Over and above being the number one transformer in the GCC, in terms of likelihood to be recommended to others, EY is ranked within the top three companies for data & analytics, sales & marketing (including customer experience), HR & change management, and digital technology & transformation.
“We are one of the only organizations that appear in the top ranks of both quality and value. Out of the Big 4, GCC clients rated EY the highest in terms of the quality of its capabilities across all services, demonstrating consistency in all of the services provided. We have always focused on helping businesses transform and navigate the changes in the region’s economic landscape. We will soon launch a suite of specialised on-demand packaged global solutions that are tailored and scaled for fast growing companies in the emerging markets,” Gerard added.
