By collecting and analyzing data and information found in databases and/or other primary and secondary research tools, you will assemble a fact base. You’ll use this research to counsel consultants and clients on the scope of the business and economic trends surrounding the issue and provide insights and analysis for solving client problems at hand. 
Day-to-day tasks may include identifying the key issues for the problem at hand and determining the most appropriate solution while effectively balancing quality, availability, timeliness, and cost factors. You’ll likely perform a variety of analyses such as benchmarking, trend identification, opportunity scanning, etc., to add value to problem-solving discussions. You’ll provide synthesis, insight, and client implications within tight deadlines via end products in the form of PowerPoint charts, written memos, models, and framework.
