Seminal projects[edit]

As the pioneer firm in professional services, Arthur D. Little played a key role in numerous 20th-century business initiatives:

In 1911 ADL organized General Motors' first R&D lab,^[9] leading to the formation of the firm's dedicated management consulting division, and the birth of the management consulting industry.^[10]

In 1916 ADL was commissioned by the Canadian Pacific Railway to do a survey of Canada's natural resources.^[9]

In 1921 the firm succeeded in using a bucket of sows' ears to make a silk purse.^[9] This revolutionary achievement later became part of the Smithsonian Institute's collection.^[11]

In 1968 ADL designed the NASDAQ stock exchange systems for London and Tokyo.^[9]

In 1969 ADL developed the Apollo 11 Laser Ranging Retro-Reflector experiment which were installed on the Moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission and which remains active and functioning to this day.^[12]

In 1980, ADL produced the European Commission's first white paper on telecommunications deregulation, having completed the first worldwide telecommunications database on phones installed, markets, technical trends, services and regulatory information.^[9] It also helped privatize British Rail, generally regarded as one of the most complex privatization exercises in the world.
