Big consulting firms?

[CProgrammer]

Hi,
I've read the past messages where you talked about Andersen Consulting. Can
you list the names of others big consulting firms in the USA and abroad,
of about the same size of Andersen, or at least with offices abroad? I know
Andersen, EDS, Young&Ernst, but the latest 2 are quite different I think,
they are more focused on financial consulting rather than tech consulting,
are they?

However, I'd be grateful if you can suggest a few other big names. Thank
you.

They're kind of hard to keep track of because they keep merging. PriceWaterhouse
merged with Coopers & Lybrand. Cap Gemini merged with Ernst & Young. There's
Deloitte & Touche. I'm not sure how big KPMG and Keane are but I know they're
international. (www.kpmg.com, www.keane.com). You might include Perot Systems
in your research.

And of course, don't forget Big Blue. If IBM's consulting revenue has not
yet exceeded their hardware revenue, it probably will in the next few years.
They sell IT consulting services for every platform, not just their own.

FYI, Andersen Consulting recently changed their name to Accenture
(www.accenture.com).
Also consider Bull Systems (www.bull.com), Sema (www.sema.com) and Logica
(www.logica.com).
