Huron Consulting Group, a management consulting firm with approximately $1.36 billion in revenues before reimbursable expenses (FY2023), served three primary verticals: Healthcare (51% of revenue), Education (31%), and Commercial (18%).

Healthcare and education clients — typically large hospital systems and universities — increasingly demanded ongoing operational support rather than one-time consulting projects. Huron needed to shift from transactional consulting to recurring digital and managed services to improve revenue predictability, margins, and growth durability.
From FY2021 through FY2024, Huron executed a deliberate mix shift toward digital technology solutions and managed services, moving away from dependence on traditional project-based consulting. Key actions included:
