SAP Support Services-Development & Consulting for Big4
Executive Summary
About Client
The Big Four consists of Deloitte, Ernst & Young (EY), KPMG, and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), and are the largest professional services networks in the world in terms of revenue. They are usually grouped because of their comparable size and ability to offer clients a wide range of professional services. These firms are also considered attractive for those pursuing a career in professional services, mainly accounting, due to their frequent engagement with Fortune 500 companies. The Big Four provides clients with various services, including audit, assurance, taxation, management consulting, valuation, market research, actuarial, corporate finance, and legal services. It’s worth noting that a significant majority of public company audits, as well as many private company audits, are conducted by these four networks. We assisted the client with setting up different SAP support services.
