CCGP

What CCGP does

CCGP, legally the Comité de Consultation en Gestion de Polytechnique, is a student-run consulting committee affiliated with Polytechnique Montréal, founded in January 2013 to train engineering students in management consulting through real client mandates. The committee recruits from all 12 engineering specialties at bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels via a rigorous selection process and forms multidisciplinary teams of student consultants that deliver 10-week project-based engagements to client organizations. Across 12 years of operation, CCGP reports 240+ completed mandates, 15 active client organizations, and approximately 7 annual projects, serving Fortune 500 corporations, startups, non-profits, and public institutions primarily in the Quebec market.

The core product is the consulting mandate, supplemented by annual programming including Semaine des Affaires (a week-long business conference), the Congrès des affaires, the Compétition d'étude de cas, and a published resource library (Consultant Guide, CV template, case study collection). Distribution is direct and relationship-led, with no publicly disclosed pricing; the revenue stream is characterized as pro-bono consulting services. The organization is governed by a 17-member student executive committee for H2026, with an alumni board of directors spanning major consulting and financial firms including McKinsey, IBM, Deloitte, Accenture, EY, PwC, KPMG, BDC, and CIM Conseil, providing mentorship and pipeline credibility.

CCGP is not a commercial enterprise: it has no parent company, no external investors, no funding rounds, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed revenue. Its core technology is described as not applicable, with no AI/ML, API, or proprietary software assets disclosed across the source corpus. The competitive positioning rests on talent access to Polytechnique Montréal engineering cohorts and a 12-year track record, rather than on technology, data, or scalable commercial infrastructure.
