Comparison
SAZ vs. BCG
SAZ vs. BCG — strategy + execution under one team.
BCG is one of the "Big Three" strategy firms with a strong digital and AI practice (BCG X). SAZ pairs strategy with engineering under a single senior-partner-led team — different operating model for different stages of operator.
