The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The average fee per engagement increased as a result of closing large projects, while costs were contained after some initiatives considered to have limited effectiveness were discontinued. Although the number of new engagements declined, the company advanced optimal resource allocation by expanding the scope and discretion of sourcing activities for highly experienced consultants, resulting in a higher proportion of large projects.
