West Monroe Named in the 2025 Organizational Change Management Services Landscape by Independent Research Firm

As organizations navigate AI adoption, tech acceleration, acquisitive growth, and cultural shifts, West Monroe views its inclusion as evidence of its ability to help companies align people, process, and technology for lasting impact

CHICAGO, October 6, 2025 – West Monroe, a global business and technology consulting firm, announced it has been named among Notable Vendors in Forrester’s report, The Organizational Change Management (OCM) Services Landscape, Q4 2025. The report provides an overview of 26 providers and serves as a resource for decision-makers seeking partners to help them remodel organizations, optimize outcomes in the face of complexity, and sustain stakeholder value.


As AI reshapes how work gets done, West Monroe’s Ultimate Guide to AI Workforce Adoption shows that only 16% of U.S. workers currently use AI in their jobs, leaving most organizations unprepared to capture its value. Combined with the fact that only 12% of major change programs produce lasting results, according to Harvard Business Review, it’s clear in the age of AI that OCM is essential to equip people with the skills and confidence to thrive in the new ways of working.


“Organizational change management is the foundation for realizing the value of every transformation — especially as AI accelerates workforce disruption,” said Dave Hilborn, leader of the Organization & People practice at West Monroe.

West Monroe’s client impact is tangible across industries including private equity, healthcare, financial services, and energy and utilities. Examples include:

  • Advised a large investor-owned utility to create a three-year IT workforce plan projected to save $65M, cut time-to-fill by 80%, and reduce reliance on contingent labor.
  • Helped a global workforce management provider unlock $75M+ in value by optimizing 10+ processes and deploying 15+ AI-enabled solutions to cut costs, reduce manual effort, and enable scale.


West Monroe’s OCM practice has delivered over 500 projects, powered by a team of more than 100 professionals. The firm significantly bolstered its capabilities with the 2022 acquisition of change management consultancy 71&Change, and has been helping clients lead change since 2012.
