Engaging Consultants: Finding the Right Fit

Given the value management consultants can potentially add to businesses, it is important for SMEs to engage competent and professional management consultants to achieve meaningful business outcomes and sustainable growth.

Here are five recommended steps that SMEs can consider when selecting a suitable consultant for their upgrading project:

  1. Identify a project area that is supported under the Enterprise Development Grant’s three project categories.

  2. Conduct preliminary desktop research to have a better understanding of your project.

  3. Shortlist 2 to 3 consultants to understand their track record and level of expertise. Evaluate the different project proposals, service offerings, cost, etc. (Refer to checklist below)

  4. Identify the consultant who best meets your project needs and requirements.

  5. Embark on your upgrading project.
