Controversy about New Karolinska Sjukhuset.[edit]

Should the ongoing controversy involving inflated costs for BCG consultants for Sweden's prestige project Nya Karolinska Sjukhuset be added to this article? If so I will endeavour to try to dig up some English language news sources.

In Dagens Nyheter, one of Sweden's biggest newspapers several legal experts and scholars advocate opening a criminal probe into BCG and the board of NKS actions.

Update | Add new section "Awards"[edit]

Some proposed changes[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Per WP:BALASP

In 2018, ALM’s consulting magazine has announced that The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) is the No. 1 consulting firm on its annual best firms to work for ranking.

Edit request declined

By their very nature, awards can be subjective, in that they represent a very specific point of view — that of the individual or organization which determines who wins the award, and why. To counter this, a good practice is to limit the listing of awards to only those which are independently notable in Wikipedia. The ALM Best Firms to Work For Award does not appear to meet this definition.
