挑战
The client was a well-regarded business consulting firm with expertise in strategic planning, financial management, and operational optimisation. It served clients ranging from SMEs to large corporations across technology, finance, and manufacturing.
As demand grew for value-added services such as cloud transformation and data analytics, the client recognised that its existing business model needed to evolve. The challenge was to shift from a more licence-based model toward a services-led strategy, strengthen profitability, expand into new service lines, and enter new markets while managing competition and changing client needs.

这对类似公司意味着什么
For consulting and professional services firms, strategic transformation grants are strongest when the project changes the business model, not just the marketing plan. A fundable case should show how the company will improve profitability, redesign revenue streams, expand service lines, strengthen internal processes, and enter new markets. This case shows how a consulting firm can use EDG support to reposition itself for higher-value advisory work and long-term scalability.
