                        Management Consulting Group PLC 
 
                          Interim Management Statement 
 
To coincide with today's Annual General Meeting, Management Consulting Group PLC 
('MCG' or 'the Group') today provides an Interim Management Statement for the 
period from 1 January 2010 to 20 April 2010. 
 
As reported in our Preliminary Results Statement on 8 March 2010, the economic 
climate has eased from that experienced in the middle part of 2009 and the 
Group's trading outlook for 2010 remains as indicated at the time of that 
Statement. The Group will continue to manage its affairs to ensure that it 
remains within its covenant limits. 
 
New business input booked so far in 2010 is above that for the equivalent period 
last year and the order book continues to trend upwards. Alexander Proudfoot has 
significantly more leads for new business than at any stage last year. It has 
booked and is currently working on some sizeable projects but is finding that 
others in the pipeline are taking longer than expected to come to fruition. In 
total, input at Ineum Consulting is good even if the current performance of the 
French market is patchy, with some areas very strong and others weaker. Kurt 
Salmon Associates continues to trade more profitably than in 2009, leveraging 
its reduced cost base to good effect. The merger of Ineum Consulting and Kurt 
Salmon Associates is proceeding well. The combined business will be known as 
'Kurt Salmon' from the beginning of 2011. 
 
It is also announced today that Nick Stagg, who joined the Board of Directors on 
21 October 2009, is appointed Chief Executive of the Group with effect from 1 
July 2010. Before joining MCG Nick was CEO of Teather & Greenwood Holdings PLC 
and, prior to that, managing director of WS Atkins International PLC. 
 
Executive Chairman Alan Barber said, "Although the Group's current trading 
continues to feel the effects of the recent recession, encouraging signs in our 
order book and pipeline are quite evident. I am delighted that Nick is becoming 
Chief Executive at this time. His extensive background in managing and 
developing businesses which rely heavily on the motivation and talent of their 
employees will be extremely valuable at MCG as we move forward. As reported in 
March I intend to continue as Executive Chairman until the end of 2010 and will 
see through Nick's induction and the merger of Ineum Consulting and Kurt Salmon 
Associates, before transitioning to the Non-executive Chairman role."
