This hub lists every EPC Group ranking of Microsoft and AI consulting firms (20 today), each by its own title with the date it was last reviewed. Every 2026 ranking states its criteria, discloses that EPC Group is a market participant, and says firm by firm where a competitor is the better choice; the earlier rankings are rebuilt to that standard in turn.

Key Facts

  • 20 ranked-list pages are linked here; each is reviewed quarterly and carries its own Published and Updated dates.
  • Each 2026 list states its own weighted criteria on the page — six to ten, chosen for that list's buyer — with the weights published beside them.
  • On the 2026 lists EPC Group appears inside its archetype, never first, with a market-participant disclosure on each of them.
  • No competitor pricing, headcount or revenue is published; EPC Group figures resolve to the public claims registry.
  • Corrections are made with a dated note on the page.

Who wrote these lists, and what they are

Author: Errin O'Connor, Founder & Chief AI Architect, EPC Group.

Disclosure: EPC Group appears on these lists. This is self-published comparison content, not an independent ranking: the firm that wrote the lists is one of the firms on them. Appearing here does not establish delivery quality; it records that a firm met the checks below on the selection date.

Selection date: firms selected and public profiles checked on October 21, 2026.

How a firm gets on a list — repeat these checks and you should arrive at the same roster:

  1. Public directory profile. The firm has a public profile on Clutch or G2, or a listing in the Microsoft partner directory, read on the selection date. The link under each firm is the profile we found; where none was found, the entry says so.
  2. Named practice area. The firm's own website names the practice the list is about — a Power BI, Microsoft 365, migration or AI consulting page of its own, not a passing mention.
  3. Published evidence of the capability. A case study, a Microsoft partner designation or a marketplace listing, on the firm's site or in the Microsoft partner directory, that shows the capability. A press mention alone does not qualify.
  4. Order on the page. The number beside a firm is its position on the page, not a score. Where a list groups firms by archetype (global system integrator, Big 4 advisory-led, Microsoft-first specialist, licensing or procurement specialist), the grouping is named on the page; EPC Group is listed inside its own archetype on the same rule as every other firm.
  5. Exclusion. A firm is left off when no public profile or named practice page could be found for it on the selection date, when it is a staffing agency or software reseller with no consulting practice of its own, or when it is a subsidiary of a firm already on the list. No firm is left off for competing with EPC Group.

Each list says, firm by firm, who the firm fits and where a competitor is the better choice. The 10 2026 lists carry a public-profile link for every firm, checked on the selection date; the earlier rankings linked below are rebuilt to this standard in turn.

Questions about these rankings

How does EPC Group rank consulting firms it competes with?

Every 2026 ranking states its own method on the page: the criteria it scored for that list's buyer (six to ten, each with its weight), a market-participant disclosure, and firm-by-firm notes on where a competitor is the better choice. Those lists are grouped by archetype rather than ranked, and EPC Group appears inside its own archetype — never first. The earlier rankings linked below carry their own dates and are rebuilt to that standard in turn.

How often are the rankings reviewed?

Quarterly. Each page carries its Published and Updated dates and its next review date; the hub lists the Updated date for every ranking.

What if a fact about a listed firm is wrong?

Email contact@epcgroup.net. Corrections are made with a dated note on the page; competitor descriptions come from each firm's own public materials, the Microsoft Solutions Partner directory and public filings.

Do these pages publish competitor pricing?

No. EPC Group does not publish competitor pricing, headcount or revenue it cannot verify, and its own figures resolve to a public claims registry.
