LONDON, October 18, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- London-based Qedis has shocked the consulting market yet again by smashing targets for the year, with outstanding sales and recruitment growth of 30%. Adding 221 new projects to its portfolio and being awarded 4th Best Small Company to work for by the Sunday Times, Qedis continues its success story.

But how is this small management consultancy defying the odds so well?

In 2003, Qedis was established as a new kind of consultancy: one with a more personal style, one that aims to change the way the world thinks about consulting.

Qedis CEO Paramjit Uppal puts much of the company's ongoing achievement down to this unique people approach - Qedis believes in treating its people and its clients in the right way. This is what we're all about. We employ excellent people, we are committed to helping our clients help themselves and we guarantee our work - it's what we like to call Next Generation Consulting.

In a year when consulting industry fees have actually fallen and with the total industry worth dropping from GBP8.5billion to GBP7.96billion (MCA), Qedis has still managed to boost sales by 30% to GBP13million. Nearly 60% of our clients from FY09 re-hired us in FY10, as well as the 25 new clients we worked with of which a third invited us back to help with other areas of their business.

Huge growth is also predicted for the year ahead, with plans to increase from 100 to 135 consultants and a sales forecast of GBP18million.

As Qedis goes from strength to strength year after year, it proves that there is still hope out there for consulting firms, if they would just start behaving like the consultants they themselves would like to buy.
