Which consulting firm is considered to be the best for health and life sciences consulting?
I have been thinking of doing life sciences consulting, with a focus on consumer health, for some time and have been wondering what some of the top firms in that area are.
ZS Associates is supposed to be the gold standard. IMS Health, BCG and McKinsey are also major players in the sector. Deloitte's presence seems to be growing too.
.
Deloitte S&O is pumping money and consultants into building their healthcare and life sciences practice right now.
Haha! Deloitte's pumping money... EVERYWHERE! Never seen a firm try to grow so aggressively.
Yes, this is true. However, there is an inordinate focus on healthcare/life sciences, especially on the West Coast.
PwC seems to have a focus on IT strategy (forensics etc.), while Deloitte seems to be aggressively growing in all functional areas and industries. But I agree, both firms are investing a shitload!

It seems Deloitte and LEK are definitely trying to grow in this space. If you are in SF, check out Triage Consulting.
MBB, Huron, ZS (though ZS is very focused on sales and marketing)
In no particular order: IMS, PwC/Strategy& (Booz), Deloitte S&O, ZS, LEK, MBB
Triage is focused on revenue reimb only. ZS is sales and marketing only. IMS leans heavy on the data/informatics. Strategy projects are typically snapped up by MBB, PwC/S&, and Deloitte S&O, with each firm losing bids to the others here. LEK does do strat work, but they are extremely small in comparison to the other firms listed here.
