How PwC works 

Each project is unique. Our approach to the task is to tailor teams so that we can help your organization in the best possible way. We believe that interdisciplinary teams will be best equipped to solve the complex issues that arise in public administration. 

As part of Norway's leading competence house, we are in a unique position to put together the best teams for any project. 

We deliver studies, do external evaluations, assist in restructuring, strategy development, profit realization, innovation and much more.

Knowledge and strategy development 

The professional environment with social economists and social scientists assists public enterprises with insight, development and a basis for decision-making. 

• Strategy development 
• Concept selection study 
  • When large government investment projects are to be studied, the government's project model sets requirements for methodology and quality. We have carried out a number of concept selection studies and established ourselves as an experienced external quality assurer. 
• Socio-economic analysis 
  • The purpose of socio-economic analysis is to find out whether a measure is socio-economically profitable or not, as well as to be able to rank and prioritize between different measures. When conducting socio-economic analysis, PwC bases itself on the guidelines in the Ministry of Finance's circular R-109/2014 and DFØ's guide in socio-economic analysis (2018). 
• Evaluations 
  • Our evaluations are method-driven, experience-based and rooted in good practice. We combine heavy professional expertise in economics and social sciences with extensive experience from analysis and consulting, business, research, public administration and international institutions. 

Innovation in the public sector 

We combine in-depth insight with an “outside perspective” and a methodological approach to innovation. Together, we help public enterprises to simplify, renew and improve. 

Service design 

• Service renewal and digitalisation in interaction 
• Business development

Execution and implementation of new services in the public sector

We assist public enterprises with the implementation of new services, measures and reforms 

• Management in the public sector 
  • Management is often about establishing or improving structures, roles and responsibilities in a company to ensure correct management information. PwC has extensive experience from organizational development and assistance at the interface between managerial, organizational, financial and legal instruments. 
• Gain realization 
  • Gain realization is a process to identify, make concrete, plan and extract expected gains from a measure. PwCs methodology for profit realization is based on best practice nationally and internationally. 
• Change management
