Public sector organizations face pressure to deliver more for their citizens than ever before. BCG’s public sector consultants help government leaders meet—and surpass—these expectations.
To improve the social, economic, and environmental well-being of citizens—today and tomorrow—governments must be responsive, agile, and capable of creatively solving complex problems. Yet many public sector organizations remain hierarchical, bureaucratic, and built for a bygone era.

BCG’s public sector consultants support governments around the world by bringing together our insights and capabilities from the private sector and from decades of experience supporting public sector clients. Our government consulting teams have completed more than a thousand public sector consulting projects in the past five years. We also founded, and continue to support, the independent Centre for Public Impact; a learning partner for governments, public servants, and those leading the charge to reimagine government so that it works for everyone.
