Accenture has agreed to acquire Maryville Consulting Group, a US-based technology consultancy with core capabilities in product-driven growth strategy, digital operations, and technology business management (TBM). Maryville Consulting Group’s team of more than 100 professionals will join Accenture, expanding Accenture’s capacity to help clients align technology investments with business outcomes as they drive reinvention.

Headquartered in St. Louis, MO, and founded in 1994 as a family-owned full-service digital transformation platform provider, Maryville Consulting Group will become a part of Accenture in North America, helping to evolve Accenture’s technology enabled Reinvention and Product Operations capabilities.

Maryville Consulting Group’s proprietary Product Model framework assists companies in driving technology transformation through the adoption of the right processes, roles and responsibilities, governance, funding models, and measurements. The firm’s expertise in digitizing value streams engages key consumers and business partners to develop a common vision and executable strategy to accelerate business outcomes through process redesign, enterprise alignment, platform design, implementation, integration, and orchestration. In parallel, Maryville Consulting Group’s business management capabilities establish the financial backbone for long-term strategic execution—enabling portfolio-based budgeting and forecasting and embedding total cost of ownership into product-level P&Ls to support real-time, data-driven business decisions.

The company combines its outcome-focused approach to strategy consulting with strong partnerships with technology leaders like Apptio, an IBM company, and Servicenow and onshore capabilities to create a unique value proposition that will significantly enhance Accenture’s offerings. Coupled with its robust roster of Fortune 500 clients, the addition of Maryville Consulting Group will complement Accenture’s global reach and expertise, and both reinforce and fuel its ambition to remain a leader in technology strategy. Maryville Consulting Group is also developing a growing specialization in advising high-growth digital infrastructure firms—supporting investment prioritization, cost transparency, and operational scalability amid surging demand driven by AI adoption and next-generation compute infrastructure.

The acquisition will further position Accenture in the growing Technology Strategy Market and drive greater business value from tech investments for its clients across all of Accenture’s Industry Groups.

Keith Boone, Tech Strategy & Advisory Americas lead at Accenture

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. 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.

Joey Blomker, managing director at Maryville Consulting Group

Joining Accenture is a natural evolution for Maryville Consulting Group. For more than 30 years, we’ve helped organizations unlock value by aligning technology with business outcomes, and this partnership allows us to scale that mission even further. 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.

Jeff Blomker, managing director at Maryville Consulting Group

This moment is a proud one for our family and our team. Our father, Joe, laid a rock-solid foundation when he founded Maryville Consulting Group in 1994, anchored in integrity, curiosity, and a commitment to client outcomes. 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.
