Hi!

What will be the criteria for a small company? 

It would be difficult to determine the company size specially if these
are private firms. If your concern is the pricing of their services,
one way to find about it is that you could contact them directly and
ask for their fees based on your unique needs.

Would a list of Pharmaceutical Pricing and Reimbursement Consultants
and their contact information, be enough as an answer even if we
couldn't determine their company size?

Thanks!

Size in range 2-25. Pricing is not focus --purely identification --so
listing with best estimate of size would do

Size in range 2-25 possibly up to 50. Obtaining information on pricing
of their services is not the focus --purely identification of
companies --so listing with best estimate of size would do

I am opening this question to other researchers. It is not really a
practice of companies to show how many are in their staff except for
public companies.

Thanks!

I know of a database that can identify small businesses that provide
such service, but there are currently only 6 such companies listed. 
There is an awful lot of detail on each company, as you can see below,
but still...there's only six of them.

How many would you consider to be a reasonable number to answer your question.

Let me know (and happy holidays).
