Constellation Consulting Group

What Constellation Consulting Group does

Constellation Consulting Group is a privately held professional services firm that implements and supports Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and data platforms for large enterprise clients. The company traces its lineage to ADI Strategies (founded 2002), re-emerged as an independent entity in May 2018 following a divestiture from Huron, and currently operates from eight regional offices across the United States, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and India. Its core delivery spans the full Oracle EPM Cloud suite — Financial Consolidation & Close (FCCS), Planning & Budgeting (EPBCS), Account Reconciliation (ARCS), Tax Reporting (TRCS), and Narrative Reporting — alongside Oracle Hyperion, Jedox, OneStream, and Anaplan platforms, with certified multi-platform expertise and a globally unique Advanced Expertise certification in Oracle EPM Cloud.

The business model is B2B professional services: Constellation sells advisory, implementation, managed services, and training engagements directly to enterprise CFOs and finance leadership through field sales, primarily serving banks, FMCG manufacturers, public sector entities, telecom operators, and conglomerates across the Middle East, Africa, Turkey, Europe, and India. Customer engagements typically run 12-24 weeks for full implementations, with multi-year managed services contracts (e.g., a long-running telecom client engagement since 2014). The firm markets through content (website, blogs, case studies), Oracle partner co-selling, regional events, and LinkedIn; pricing is engagement-based and not publicly disclosed. Reported client outcomes include financial close cycle reductions from 15-25 days to 5-8 days, 60% budget cycle reductions, and 98% reductions in data transfer and consolidation time.

Revenue is not publicly disclosed and there are no funding rounds in the input data; the firm appears bootstrapped with 50+ named EPM consultants and marquee logos including Ziraat Bank (Turkey), KCB Group (Kenya), Sanmar Denizcilik, Acıbadem Health Group, Aldar Properties, and a major UAE telecom operator.
