MB CONSULTING SAS

What MB CONSULTING SAS does

MB Consulting is a Paris-based professional services firm that operates three integrated service lines for the French market. First, it prepares candidates for French accounting credentials (DCG, DSCG, DEC) and Masters Finance programs using internally developed practice exams at real-exam difficulty, detailed corrections, and full thesis supervision, with stated outcomes of 600+ students accompanied, 55+ DSCG theses completed, and 10+ DEC admissions since 2021 at a 100% admission rate. Second, it delivers management, financial, and strategic consulting to small and medium enterprises, associations, and federations, covering budgetary control, financing decisions, multi-entity environments, project management, and legal compliance. Third, it provides process automation and document dematerialization services rooted in open source technologies and applied machine learning.

The technical stack is GNU/Linux, Debian, and Python, supplemented by the scientific Python ecosystem (NumPy, pandas, Matplotlib, Jupyter, scikit-learn) and open source tooling for BPM (Bonitasoft), document management (Alfresco), reporting (Jaspersoft), and web content (Drupal). All automation is delivered on client infrastructure to preserve data sovereignty. The automation practice combines process engineering with applied ML for document classification, OCR-based extraction, anomaly detection on data flows, and semantic search / RAG assistants deployed on the customer's own servers.

The company generates revenue through three professional services streams: training programs (annual preparation, intensive revision, exam practice, thesis supervision), consulting engagements, and project-based automation and open source technology services. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; initial scoping meetings are offered without commitment. The firm is privately held, registered as a SAS (RCS Paris 931 960 512) with 1,300 EUR of share capital, 12 employees, and a single-country operating footprint in France. It is led by president Marc Bey.
