IT consulting firms

[cojak]

There are a load of niche SME consultancies out there doing very well for themselves (as CoolCat says they are delivery focused). It's not all Big 4 and their competitors.

Take a look at your specialism and you'll find them there.

Within the Oracle UK space, there are loads of "small" consultancies that have large clients and good turnover. eg. Claremont, Certus, Rocela...

Hitachi Consulting are another one that I'd add to your list.

Interesting.. HPE is HP I take it?

HP split into two. HPE is HP Enterprise which is professional services, server kit, outsourcing, and software products.

HP Inc (or laughingly HP Ink as lots of their profit comes from printer ink) is mainly end user devices and consumables

HPE is due to split and merge more, services part becomes part of CSC. Software bit has been sold to Micro Focus I seem to recall. Which will leave HPE only being various kinds of Server kit.

HPE Services and CSC are in complete and utter meltdown.

To put it blatantly those consultancies are carp.

Anyway it is as Cojak said there are niche SME consultancies around and if your skill set matches what they need they will engage you.
