Summarize this article for a 10 year old
EY-Parthenon (often shortened as EY-P or EYP) is Ernst & Young's global strategy consulting arm.[5][6][7] The firm was established as The Parthenon Group LLC in 1991 by former Bain & Company directors William "Bill" Achtmeyer and John C. Rutherford. In 2014 The Parthenon Group merged with professional services firm EY forming the new entity EY-Parthenon.[8][9][10] The move was viewed as part of the continued efforts by the Big Four to move up the value chain from their traditional audit services into more lucrative areas of business, as well as to provide new points of entry to clients.
