Accenture acquires Maryville Consulting Group to boost tech strategy
NEW YORK, UNITED STATES — Outsourcing giant Accenture has announced its agreement to acquire Maryville Consulting Group, a U.S.-based technology consultancy known for its expertise in product-driven strategy, digital operations, and technology business management. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The acquisition aims to enhance Accenture’s capabilities in aligning technology investments with business outcomes, particularly in North America.
Based in St. Louis, Missouri, Maryville Consulting Group was founded in 1994 as a family-run business. Today, it boasts a team of more than 100 professionals and a strong track record serving Fortune 500 clients.
The firm’s proprietary Product Model framework helps organizations drive transformation through process redesign, enterprise alignment, governance, and cost transparency.
“This acquisition is a strategic step in our ongoing commitment to expanding our technology and digital transformation capabilities in order to help clients extract maximum value from their technology investments,” said Keith Boone, Tech Strategy & Advisory Americas lead at Accenture.
“Maryville Consulting Group’s deep expertise in tech strategy and digital operations, combined with their strong partnerships and client relationships, will significantly enhance our ability to help clients leverage technology as a competitive advantage and drive technology value to achieve business goals.”
Expanding capabilities for the AI era
Maryville’s growing specialization in digital infrastructure and partnerships with technology leaders like Apptio and ServiceNow will complement Accenture’s services, particularly as demand rises in AI.
The firm’s TBM strengths support cost control and operational scalability, helping clients prioritize investments and embed total cost of ownership into product-level decisions.
“Joining Accenture is a natural evolution for Maryville Consulting Group,” said Joey Blomker, managing director at Maryville Consulting Group.
“Our clients will benefit from Accenture’s global platform and deep capabilities, while still receiving the hands-on, outcome-driven service that has always defined our firm.”
Accenture’s global reach and local expertise
Accenture, headquartered in Dublin and operating in over 120 countries, employs approximately 791,000 people globally. The firm delivers professional services across strategy, consulting, technology, and operations, with deep expertise in AI, data, cloud, and digital platforms. It generated $17.7 billion in revenue last quarter.
Maryville will become part of Accenture’s North American operations, further solidifying the company’s position in the technology strategy market.
Jeff Blomker, also a managing director at Maryville, said, “Our father, Joe, laid a rock-solid foundation when he founded Maryville Consulting Group in 1994. We’ve built on that vision, and now with Accenture, we’re excited to take it to the next level for our clients and our colleagues.”
