What ERM Group does

ERM Group (Enterprise Risk Management Group) is a private, Moscow-based management consulting firm serving corporate clients across Russia. The firm operates through four core practice areas: Strategy Consulting (including Balanced Scorecard, KPI development, organizational structure, and business process design), Finance Consulting (including IFRS, Fast Close for RSBU reporting, budgeting, and Shared Services Center modeling), Human Capital Consulting (HR strategy, corporate culture, recruitment systems, and staff evaluation), and Risk Management Systems Consulting (comprehensive risk assessment, process implementation, and risk reporting automation). The firm positions itself as a partner rather than an external consultant, with a stated methodology combining Russian practice, Western technologies, and proprietary know-how.

The firm delivers services through project-based engagements directly to corporate clients via a sales-led GTM motion, with no proprietary technology platform, software products, or SaaS offering. Its documented quantifiable outcome is a 25-30x reduction in RSBU reporting close periods via its Fast Close methodology. The firm's technology footprint is minimal — its website runs on a legacy Joomla/Mambo CMS with visible PHP deprecation warnings, and no proprietary IP, patents, or technology assets are disclosed. The firm has no disclosed funding, no parent company, no subsidiaries, no listed leadership team, no partnerships, and no third-party awards or recognition.

With 19 employees and offices at two Moscow locations, ERM Group operates as a small boutique consultancy. Revenue, headcount trends, and ownership structure are not publicly disclosed. The firm serves a single-country market (Russia) with no stated international operations, and its customer base is described generically as corporate businesses seeking improvements in strategic management, financial systems, human capital, and risk management.
