Consultant

STAR Study Association Rotterdam School of Management

The Erasmus Consultancy Project is jointly formed by 27 motivated consultants, 2 professors of business and various advisers who come from a broad variety of business, finance and economics related degrees at the Erasmus University in Rotterdam. Our aim is to provide cutting edge market research and consultancy services for Dutch multinationals operating in or otherwise interested in Peru.

The past 28 years have seen firms such as BP, Phillips and KPMG (among many many more) hire the services of ECP in diverse countries around the world. 

Our methodology can be summarized as:

1. Pre-Research Phase - We perform pre-market research from September to November in order to familiarize ourselves with the Peruvian economy and business environment. This includes in-depth sector analysis.

2. Acquisition Phase - From November to Spring 2016 we will acquire business cases from multinationals. Each case will be handled by a minimum of 2 consultants, though it is not unusual for particular cases to require upwards of 10 consultants.

3. Desk Research Phase - We research and draft a report representing a solution for the business case up until the end of June.

4. Field Research Phase - We travel to Peru and do research in the field for 3 weeks during July. Based on our findings we finalize our report and present it to the firm.
