FREIBURG, GERMANY — Outsourcing giant Accenture has announced its acquisition of consus.health, a German healthcare management consultancy. 

This strategic move aims to strengthen Accenture’s healthcare consulting capabilities in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (collectively known as DACH countries).

While the financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed, the acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions.

Strengthening healthcare solutions

The acquisition of consus.health is part of Accenture’s broader strategy to strengthen its position in the healthcare sector. 

By integrating consus.health’s expertise in revenue and cost management, process optimization, and hospital management, Accenture aims to provide more comprehensive solutions to its clients.

“By joining Accenture, we will continue our mission of structurally and economically empowering healthcare organizations to care for their patients,” said Dr. Djordje Nikolic, founder and CEO of consus.health. 

“I am convinced that with Accenture’s digital expertise and consus.health’s healthcare know-how, we will help make a difference in healthcare and offer exciting new opportunities to our employees.”

As part of the acquisition, Nikolic will lead Accenture’s Health Strategy & Consulting practice in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany, focusing on building and growing the health provider business.

Expanding Accenture’s healthcare portfolio

“In the healthcare industry, organizations are under pressure to improve access, experience and outcomes, while reducing costs,” said Christina Raab, market unit lead for Accenture in Austria, Switzerland and Germany.

“consus.health’s industry expertise will enhance our capabilities that help healthcare organizations with their digital transformation journeys and drive efficiency at the same time.”

Founded in 2012, consus.health has established a strong presence in the German market, serving over 600 healthcare providers and hospitals. The company offers a wide range of services, including medical strategy, patient management, procurement, logistics, infrastructure management, and construction planning. 

With a team of 140 experts based in Freiburg im Breisgau, consus.health has built a reputation for improving the financial and operational performance of its clients.

The acquisition of consus.health follows Accenture’s purchase of other healthcare firms, including Intellera Consulting, ConcentricLife, and Nautilus Consulting.

Accenture is a global leader in professional services. It operates in more than 120 countries and has an approximately 750,000-person workforce. For the second consecutive year, it ranked #1 in the OA500 2024, an objective index of the world’s top 500 outsourcing companies.
