When evaluating the success of a operational improvements consultancy firm, two major factors often come into play: client advocacy and recognition through industry awards.

Having recently been recognised on two prestigious platforms: the Forbes 2024 World’s Best Management Consulting Firms list and the Financial Times UK’s Leading Management Consultants 2024 list – Bourton Group LLP is positioned amongst some of the consulting industry’s elite.

Client Advocacy

Rooted in trust, satisfaction, and real impact, what our clients think offers a more accurate reflection of our operational improvements consultancy value.  Our commitment to building long-term partnerships and delivering tailored solutions that drive meaningful results is at the core of our company values.

Industry Awards

Yes, awards can open doors, and those from respected industry bodies like the MCA, Forbes, or The Financial Times can bring external validation and prestige. Such accolades can serve as a quick stamp of credibility for potential clients unfamiliar with our firm’s track record, helping to differentiate us in a crowded marketplace.

While both have their merits, the question is: which is more valuable to us?

While we deeply appreciate all recognition, we place the highest value on the opinions and satisfaction of our clients.

So, for us, it will always be client advocacy over awards or accolades.

We have been helping to make businesses better for nearly 60 years, and having clients who repeatedly return for additional services or recommend us to others has massively contributed to our long-term success.
