Homepage / About us

An independent firm, based in Montpellier by principle.

TMG Conseil was founded to provide focused, accountable and operational consulting. Independent from every software vendor and systems integrator, and grounded in frontline reality.

Three words define the acronym: Fieldwork, Resources, Management. A three-part discipline that describes how we work.

01 / Manifesto
Our job is not to produce slides. It is to frame the right problem, then carry the solution through to completion.

Fieldwork

No detached consulting. We work on the ground, within your teams and operations. Understand what works, identify what is blocked and find the real levers.

M

Resources

A recommendation without the means to execute remains a PDF. We define the necessary human, technical and financial resources and build them with you when useful.

G

Management

The discipline that keeps everything working over time. Operational management, governance, indicators and team handover. The engagement does not end with a deliverable. It ends when you can operate independently.

French consulting has a problem with length. Engagements stretched over quarters, oversized teams and deliverables that end up on a shelf. TMG Conseil exists because we believe the opposite: a small firm, defined engagements and the same contact from signature to handover.

For us, independence means no ownership link with a software vendor, no commission and no dependency on a systems integrator. Our recommendation is free from influence - the only basis on which consulting is useful.

We work across four disciplines because few real problems remain within one. A strategy redesign without governance remains a PDF. A tool without the organisation around it becomes a burden. A brand without operational consistency does not last six months.

We also build our own tools - not from fascination with technology, but because beyond a certain threshold generic SaaS stops fitting reality. When that happens, we are explicit: custom-built, in your name and transferable.

03 / Values

Five convictions that hold up in practice.

/01 - Independence

No vendor, no systems integrator and no commission.

Our recommendation is free from influence. This is non-negotiable and what makes the consulting useful.

/02 - Commitment

A TMG Conseil engagement continues through adoption - not just delivery.

If it is not being used after three months, it has not been delivered. We return to measure and adjust without additional charge.

/03 - Honesty

If we do not know how to do something, we say so.

And we refer you to someone suitable. The network comes before revenue.

/04 - Continuity

The consultant who sells the engagement is the one who delivers it.

No senior consultant sold for scoping and then replaced by a junior for delivery.

/05 - Ownership

Everything belongs to you from day one.

Code, accounts and documents - in your name.

04 / Leadership

One person accountable for every engagement.

/01 - Founder

Consulting, operations and code in the same mind.

Several years in consulting firms and company leadership before founding TMG Conseil. The original conviction fits in one sentence: the best operational advice comes from consultants who have executed, and the reverse is also true.

Now leading the firm and directly involved in every strategy and IT engagement. Broader engagements are delivered with a network of long-tested partners.
