You're thinking management consulting, like Bain or McKinsey. Accenture is a body shop. They put butts in seats for IT service contracts, typically for the lowest price point for clients.

While true, in my understanding they aren't the best-in-class for their management consulting, and the bulk of the labor is in body shop.
