Consulting

IT consulting or business and technology services is a field that focuses on advising businesses on how best to use information technology to meet their business objectives. In addition to providing advice, IT consultancies often implement, deploy, and administer IT systems on businesses' behalf.

The IT consulting industry can be viewed as a three-tier system:

• Professional services firms which maintain large professional workforces and command high bill rates.
• Staffing firms, which place technologists in businesses on a temporary basis.
• Independent consultants, who function as contractors, employees of staffing firms, or as subcontractors in their own right.

There is a relatively unclear line between management consulting and IT consulting. There are sometimes overlaps between the two fields.
