Concord Management and Consulting (Russian: ??????? ?????????? ? ??????????) is a member of the Concord company group, which is half owned by Yevgeny Prigozhin. Based in St. Petersburg, Russia, it owns and operates several restaurants. It is also the parent company of Concord Catering.

"North Versailles" (Russian: ???????? ???????) is a luxury housing development in the Lahti-Primorsky district of St. Petersburg built and managed by Concord Management and Consulting. The development closed a section of Novaya Street to the public by erecting gates with armed guards. This was controversial because city records showed the street as still a public right of way.

Concord Management and Consulting owns 50% of LLC Megaline (Russian: ????????). Megaline received most of the capital construction contracts for the Russian military in 2016 in what appears to have been a rigged bidding process. Concord Management and Consulting's lawyers provided a package of amendments to the Ministry of Defense to change the laws in a way that would allow Megaline to bid for the contracts since it otherwise wasn't qualified. The amendments were submitted to the Duma by the government on February 11, 2014, and adopted on April 16, 2014.

On June 20, 2017, The United States Treasury Department added Concord Management and Consulting to the list of companies sanctioned for Russia's military interventions in Crimea and the Ukraine.

Dmitry Utkin, also under sanctions, became the CEO of Concord Management and Consulting on November 14, 2017. Utkin is the founder of Wagner Group a private military contractor. He replaced Anastasia Sautina.
