The first step of a consultant is to define the problem. Common problems are -I have an idea and I want everyone onboard. -I want to get rid of x with no legal consequences. -My company is inefficient because of x, but it is not about x because x is emotionally unsolvable, so can you solve my companies inefficiencies? Note that all of these are easily known beforehand, but getting a group to get on the same page and actually move in one direction is hard, so bring in consultants.
