Roger Shepherd, Bishopsgate’s EOT exit specialist advised on the sale of BCS Consulting, a leading UK-based management consultancy, on its sale to Accenture (NYSE: ACN).
Founded in 2001, BCS Consulting has built a strong reputation for delivering complex business transformation projects for major financial services firms, including work across payments, open banking, operational resilience, financial crime, and cost optimisation.
The company had been wholly owned by its Employee Ownership Trust (EOT).
BCS Consulting’s team of 250 professionals will integrate into Accenture’s UK Financial Services Strategy and Consulting practice, bringing specialist expertise to complement and enhance Accenture’s financial services capabilities.
The transaction provides continuity for BCS Consulting’s employees while unlocking new opportunities for growth, leveraging Accenture’s global scale, deep industry expertise, and advanced technology solutions. The move aligns with Accenture’s broader strategy of expanding its UK financial services consulting practice through high-quality acquisitions.
