TMC – Focus: Efficiency Advisory Services

domestic and international companies by providing top quality consulting services

The TMCgroup was founded in 1989 and has since then developed into a pure

advisory service consulting group

Since 2001 an Advisory Board - consisting of highly skilled and experienced Board

Members - supervises the quality of services rendered to TMC - clients and the Board

Members themselves occasionally participate in projects where special know-how is

required

Following the principle of an open communication with its clients, TMC is operating an

active website under www.TMCgroup.de which is being updated on a monthly basis

revealing most of the assignments TMC is presently working on

The staff of TMC consists of people of different nationalities offering a broad scope of

skills and experience

The typical TMC consultant is a well groomed executive with former successful line

management experience in dedicated industries. Consequently, there is a saying within

the TMCgroup that ”…a typical TMC-partner has either grey hair or no hair at all”

This segment represents the very beginning of TMC: We started with the

executive search service still being considered as one of the backbones

of the TMCgroup

Historically we later moved into board-service and are covering corporate

governance topics

In parallel we started entering into typical operational HR-issues, such as

compensation, assessment and covering innovative concepts, like the

talent (executive) pipeline, diversity issues and succession planning

For smaller and mid-sized businesses TMC accelerates clients’ growth by

optimization / creation of HR processes

recruitment, talent- and knowledge management

offering interim HR- and HR development management

We have gained extensive experience in the field of national and

international executive search assignments

The TMC group operates with an in-house research department

consisting of highly skilled professionals

In the field of executive search we consider ourselves as generalists

with special expertise in dedicated areas

The opening of our Frankfurt office stands for covering typical

management issues, like cost reduction

Here, TMC is offering sophisticated cost reduction services, like

travel management

credit card systems

shared service centers

Proudly we can claim to be the most powerful (and largest) European

consulting organization providing travel management consulting

services

To offer a balanced scope of services, TMC has decided not only to

focus on costs, but also on revenues

In that segment, TMC offers its clients dedicated services geared

to provide increased growth, like

international expansion (China, Russia)

mergers & acquisitions

organization efficiency services

and – typically for Germany –

development of mid-sized companies (primarily family-held

businesses)

In order to increase the efficiency of our clients’ organizations, we offer

IT-based services as plug-in-solutions for existing and new processes

and systems (Saarbrucken office)

TMC is a consulting firm rendering services to both local and international clients

within all kind of industries

with a clearly defined spirit of belonging to the leaders of that respective market

Consequently, TMC is being considered as a typical “generalist” as opposed to

consulting companies being assessed as “industry specialists”

Our prime contact within a client organization represents the

General Manager

CEO, CFO, COO

owner of the business

Typically , TMC enjoys a long-lasting relationship with its clients, such as KÜHNE + NAGEL (for more than 30 years) THYSSENKRUPP (for more than 20 years) QUADRIGA CAPITAL (for more than 10 years)
