Our business model is different to traditional consultancies. We understand that complex technology problems benefit from people with a breadth and depth of experience. We ensure all members of the global Equal Experts network have the necessary skills required to deliver greater business value to our customers.
We can prove we have twice the experience per consultant than our primary competitors.
The average industry experience for a typical IT consultancy is around 8 years. The average for Equal Experts is 18 years and 90% of our people have 10 plus years of industry experience.
This depth of experience within the Equal Experts network means we can assign smaller, more adept teams, bringing a level of skill that enables us to work with our clients to solve problems faster, increase efficiency and be prepared to respond to market opportunities long after we leave.
Most consultancies have a small number of people at the top of their experience pyramid, with a larger number of less experienced junior consultants beneath. In fact, analysis of the more traditional consultancies shows that anywhere from 35% to 55% of their staff have less than five years of experience and a significant majority have less than 10 years. These less experienced team members often need careful and time-consuming supervision and management.
At Equal Experts, our approach focuses on recruiting senior consultants so we can offer our clients a concentrated pool of highly experienced people to draw from. It means we bring fewer people with more expertise to our client engagements and our team can focus on work that adds business value rather than supervising and managing junior consultants.
Our values and ethos also ensure that our consultants have a superior understanding of how they can work much better with each other and deliver more for our customers.
With more experience, our people can focus on delivery and solve problems with greater efficiency, leading to a lower overall total cost for our customers.
Through best practices and support, we help build in-house capabilities, equipping customer teams to sustain and grow their digital and engineering cultures.
When complications happen, and they always do, we have the expertise on hand to support customers through the most complicated challenges.
All business models have their pros and cons. But, when you consider the type of problems we help our clients to solve at Equal Experts, it’s worth thinking about the level of experience and the best consultancy approach to solve them.
