From planning to implementation: EPG Consulting has been recognized as a Top Consultant 2025 by the Scientific Society for Management and Consulting (WGMB). As the independent logistics consulting division of the Ehrhardt Partner Group (EPG), the firm is now officially ranked among Germany’s top consulting providers for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). As part of a scientifically grounded evaluation process, WGMB surveyed reference clients—with compelling results. EPG’s logistics experts stood out for their deep subject-matter expertise, a proven track record of more than 6,500 successfully implemented projects, and a strong commitment to addressing the specific needs of mid-sized businesses. The award ceremony took place on June 27 during the German SME Summit in Mainz and was presented by former Federal President and Top Consultant mentor Christian Wulff.
Whether it’s warehouse planning, site strategy, digital transformation, or automation. EPG Consulting supports businesses from strategic analysis through to operational implementation—across the entire supply chain. With customized concepts and a deep understanding of logistics processes, the firm guides both SMEs and large enterprises on their journey toward future-ready logistics. What sets EPG Consulting apart: complete technological neutrality and vendor independence. This ensures objective, needs-based consulting and planning services with maximum impact in practice.
Practical. Actionable. Future-Proof.
Unlike traditional jury-based evaluations, EPG Consulting was assessed directly by mid-sized reference clients using a comprehensive set of criteria—including subject-matter expertise, implementation success, communication, client loyalty, and likelihood of recommendation. One of the key factors that stood out was EPG’s collaborative approach: clients are closely involved in every phase of the project—from the initial idea to simulation, planning, and final implementation. The consulting team combines deep industry expertise with cutting-edge methods in digitalization, automation, and sustainability.
“Consulting, to us, means working hand in hand with our clients to develop viable solutions and execute them with precision,” says Marcel Wilhelms, Managing Director of EPG Consulting. “We see ourselves as sparring partners—committed to the sustainable optimization of logistics processes. Being named a Top Consultant affirms that our partnership-based consulting model delivers genuine value. The fact that our clients rated us so highly is both a special honor and a strong motivation to continue on this path with the same commitment.”
Strong Industry Presence – From Pharma to E-Commerce
With over 100 active projects currently underway, EPG Consulting is among the fastest-growing logistics consultancies in German-speaking regions. Its client portfolio includes both mid-sized businesses and international corporations from industries where logistics efficiency, transparency, and scalability are paramount. “As diverse as our clients are—whether growth-driven SMEs or established global players—they face similar questions,” explains Wilhelms. “How do we scale effectively? How can we automate intelligently? How do we design efficient networks? That’s where we come in—with data-driven, actionable answers.”
EPG Consulting’s services range from strategic network design, warehouse and site development, and make-or-buy analysis to RFP management for systems and services, as well as the implementation of automation and digitization initiatives.
