Egremont Group, the London based consultancy firm, today announced that it has been shortlisted in four categories for the prestigious Management Consultancy Association (MCA) 2017 awards. In the Change Management in the Private Sector category they have been shortlisted for their two year business transformation programme for Walgreens Boots Alliance and in the International category for a cultural change and performance improvement programme for Walgreens’ stores across the US which has so far touched more than 100,000 store and regional staff.

Egremont Group is also shortlisted for a new category of award, Consulting Excellence, described by the MCA as the new hallmark for quality in the consulting industry. For this award, Consulting Excellence: Client Service and Value, Egremont has been recognised for the breadth of work carried out by the team over the past year, the sustainable value they have delivered to clients resulting in an average return of investment of 1:10 and the overall excellence of their programme delivery.

The combined shortlisted awards have resulted in Egremont being nominated for one of the top overall consultancy awards ‘Best New Consultancy’ which is awarded to the consultancy, new to the MCA, which can best demonstrate their client focus, delivery excellence, commitment to people and operational excellence via a presentation to the judging panel.

Commenting on the shortlist, Egremont Group CEO Sean Connolly said: “Our clients say it’s our challenging yet supportive approach that makes the work we do together so special, and to have that work shortlisted by the MCA for two major projects as well as for overall Consulting Excellence really is the culmination of a landmark year for Egremont Group. Our whole team is dedicated to delivering transformational work for clients across the US, UK and Europe while at home we have refocused ourselves internally, concentrating on our core capability, business transformation. This is the start of a whole new era for the group as we build a consultancy that will continue to grow and flourish with new clients. Bring on 2017.”
