Choice criteria in selection of MCs

I am writing my thesis on the choice criteria used in the selection of traditional consultants in contrast to e-business consultants. Can anybody help me find relevant literature or perhaps know from experience which criteria are the most important. Thanx.

I am aware of 2 books that may help you:

Choosing and Using a Consultant by Herman Holtz published by John Wiley and Sons. ISBN: 0-471-60287-6

How to Select and Use Consultants:a clients guide by Milan Kuber. Pub. by International Labour Office, ISDN:92-2-10851-1

Hope this helps. Good luck with your thesis.
