Advisory, implementation and the line buyers draw between them
IT consulting sits between two markets a public buyer keeps separate on purpose. Advisory work -- architecture, strategy, procurement support, assurance of somebody else's delivery -- is bought for independence, and a firm that provides it is frequently barred from bidding for the implementation it shaped. Implementation consulting is bought for delivery capacity and is judged on method and people. Reading which side of that line a notice sits on is the first commercial question, because winning the wrong one can foreclose a larger opportunity.
Engagement is dominated by frameworks with rate cards by role and seniority, called off through further competition or direct award. That makes the published rate card the real bid, and it makes the proposed blend of grades the real price: two suppliers with identical rates can quote very different totals for the same work depending on how much of it they put on senior staff. Buyers increasingly cap the proportion of junior time and require named individuals with the right to reject substitutions.
The terms that decide whether a consulting engagement leaves anything behind are about knowledge and exit. Public buyers now routinely require documented handover, the transfer of models, configurations and scripts produced during the work, restrictions on the consultant's ability to resell the same artefacts back, and a transition obligation at the end of the term. Where the work touches personal or classified data, security clearance for staff, approved working locations and controls on offshore access are conditions of entry rather than negotiable preferences.
This section describes how this category is bought generally, across the public buyers that publish it. The figures elsewhere on this page are measured for this market alone.
