Energy sectors such as wind power, solar energy and hydrogen technologies are taking centre stage, with consultants developing strategies for implementing these technologies and helping with applications for subsidies. In the area of funding advice, specialised consultancies are more in demand than ever to guide companies through the complex process of applying for funding. This includes identifying suitable funding programmes and assisting with application procedures, enabling companies to secure financial resources for strategic growth and alleviating their burden through bureaucratic processes. IBISWorld expects industry turnover to increase at an average annual growth rate of 1% over the next five years to reach 50.2 billion euros in 2030. Hybrid advisory approaches that combine both direct client interaction and digital solutions are expected to become the new standard.

Business consultants specialising in energy consulting can benefit from the growing demand by offering comprehensive solutions not only for implementing sustainable technologies, but also for optimising business strategies in the course of the energy transition.

The Management Consulting industry has faced mixed operating conditions over the past few years. The Australian Government's decision to reduce spending on consultants and focus on developing in-house capacities has adversely impacted industry expansion. The 2024-25 Federal Budget showcased this commitment, pledging savings of $1.0 billion through the reduction in outsourcing over the next few years, following the accomplishment of $3.0 billion in savings from similar initiatives in the 2022-23 Budget. At the same time, emerging technologies like generative AI (genAI) are capturing the interest of clients and driving demand for technology consulting. Although revenue from IT consulting isn't directly included in the Management Consulting industry figures, it plays a vital role in strengthening the sector, as it allows consulting firms to cross-sell their services and provide comprehensive, end-to-end solutions. Overall, industry revenue is expected to contract at an annualised 1.1% over the five years through 2024-25 to an estimated $45.5 billion. This trend includes an anticipated 3.3% dip in the current year as businesses cut back on discretionary spending. Consolidation activity has risen over the past few years as larger firms like Deloitte and Accenture have acquired smaller consulting practices. These firms have pursued acquisitions to expand client bases and develop their exposure to high-value and specialised consulting work. In recent years, a raft of new small firms and sole proprietors have contributed to growing enterprise numbers, lifting competition and weighing down industry profitability. Management consulting services' revenue is poised to grow, buttressed by favourable downstream market conditions. Industry revenue is on track to expand at an annualised 1.4% through the end of 2029-30 to an estimated $48.7 billion. A hike in private-sector capital expenditure and improving business confidence, coupled with a recovery in finance activity, will underpin this growth. Emerging products and markets, along with the increased use of analytics, will also benefit consulting firms. Regulatory changes will reshape the consulting landscape, with more stringent oversight and improved transparency. This shift is poised to limit the growth of larger consulting firms but will benefit smaller firms and those specialising in servicing the public sector.
