How we graded ERM consultants


The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Risk Management Consultants


Details behind the ERM Consultants Wave


BearingPoint


BearingPoint is best suited for engagements focusing on specific risks

• ERM service offering is strong in specific silos of risk management but is limited in its ability to articulate a broad ERM vision.

• This means that the service is an especially good fit for buyers who:

» Need help with specific risk areas.

» Require integration of risk management into the technology architecture.


Deloitte


Deloitte is best suited for defining ERM strategy and governance

• ERM service offering is strong in ERM strategy and governance consulting but shows limitations in its ability to integrate ERM into the technical infrastructure.


» Require interaction on ERM with executives and the Board.

» Have to develop an overall ERM strategy.

» Need industry-specific ERM guidance.


IBM


IBM is best suited for ERM technology integration

• ERM service offering is strong in technology services and future direction/growth plans but requires further growth in its strategy and organizational consulting offering for ERM.

• This means that the service provider is an especially good fit for buyers who:

» Require ERM to get operationalized into the technology infrastructure.

» Want strong client references/satisfaction.


PricewaterhouseCoopers


PricewaterhouseCoopers is best suited for strategy and risk taxonomy

• ERM service offering is strong, particularly in ERM strategy and risk taxonomy/framework, but lacks a significant technology advisory practice around ERM.


» Require thought leadership around ERM.

» Need implementation of an ERM strategy.


Protiviti


Protiviti is best suited for ERM operations development

• ERM service offering is strong, particularly in risk taxonomy, ability to implement ERM operations, and knowledge management. However, Protiviti has relatively limited market presence.


» Are looking for a strong source of ERM thought leadership and shared knowledge.

» Are looking for operational implementation of an ERM program.


Other risk management players

• The market is broader than what we covered:

» Big 4: Ernst & Young, KPMG

» Systems Integrators: Accenture, CSC, HP, EDS

» Mid-tier audit firms: BDO Seidman, Grant Thornton

» Boutique specialists: Jefferson Wells, OpRisk Advisory, Fair Isaacs, Paisley Consulting


Parting thoughts . . .

• Despite how vendors scored, it still gets down to the project team working for your organization.

“Individual client experience will vary depending on the specific team assigned to your engagement.”
