Cambridge Consultants was founded in 1960 by Tim Eiloart, Rodney Dale, and David Southward, three Cambridge University graduates.[2]

Little (ADL), an American management consultancy firm.[3] In 2002, following ADL's Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Cambridge Consultants was acquired by Altran, a global innovation and engineering consulting firm.[4] In 2020, Altran was acquired by Capgemini,[5] with Cambridge Consultants thus coming under the ownership of the French firm, and operating under the "Capgemini Invent" umbrella.
