TPS reports exist in many places. However companies like EY are predicated on performing incomprehensible amounts of busywork ground out by legions (literally: EY alone has nearly 100 Roman legions of headcount) of minions, constructing a illusion that the busywork is essential to any respectable Real Business Factory and lobbying for their flavor of busywork to be a legal requirement in as many jurisdictions as possible. It's like gun companies selling body armour. You could nuke most of these organisations to dust and all that really would happen would be an adjustment as everyone realises the complicated TPS reports weren't very useful anyway and the world keeps turning. |

There are some areas where there’s an argument to be made about cost effectiveness, but experience has demonstrated to me that if you’re retaining the services of groups in these firms that you realistically could afford much better service from somewhere else. Like direct hiring for the talent you need or recruiting your own contractors, working with vendors directly, etc.
I’ve never seen results from these firms that make me go “oh wow! That’s worth what was paid!”
I’m not saying it doesn’t happen. For my experiences, I’ve just never seen it.
