Public sector

We help public sector organizations and institutions to master the complex challenges of our time with innovative solutions

Bold, practical strategy that works

In the face of new challenges — like automation, an aging workforce, spending cuts, globalisation, and digitisation — public sector organisations must refocus on what they do and how they do it to maximise their impact on citizens and communities across the globe. We help leaders at the most successful organisations ensure that they are invested in the right capabilities, are sustainably funded, and have the means to deliver on their purpose. This is strategy, made real.


Our consulting expertise in the public sector

Dreaming big is important — as long as those dreams are pulled down to earth. We embed our strategy capabilities with your teams to transform perspective into pragmatism and ambition into action. The result? Strategy that works for government agencies, NGOs, and citizens around the world for years to come, supporting the complex needs of children, students, victims, immigrants, the unemployed, veterans, the disabled, the elderly, and all their caregivers.

We help clients develop initiatives that aim to enhance energy savings, promote the more rational use of energy, and increase the share of renewable energy in overall energy supply. And we ensure that effective climate protection policies do not have a negative impact on your competitive advantage.

Client results

A German federal ministry assigned us to support the construction of critical energy infrastructure in northern Germany. The aim of the project was to create transparency about the project progress and to increase the pace of construction. After analyzing the schedules as well as the project status in the areas of engineering, procurement, approval and construction, we first identified obstacles to the project. We then worked with the responsible authorities to design, prioritize and implement acceleration measures together with the industry. As a result, the first infrastructure was successfully connected to the grid in December 2022 and February 2023.

Strategy& was engaged to identify opportunities that could effectively encourage the development and uptake of low-carbon processes in high-impact industries. After identifying a number of sectors with high CO2 emissions levels, we assessed the reduction potential of their production processes and the feasibility of interventions. As a result of our work, we identified CO2 reductions totaling 3 million tons and developed an intervention strategy to achieve these reductions. Intervention plays were prioritised on the basis of CO2 reduction potential, feasibility, and resource requirements.
