Our Values

Three basic beliefs that guide and encourage us to achieve lasting success for our clients and our firm.

Responsibility at BearingPoint

We believe it is our responsibility to leave a better world for future generations.

Pro bono consulting

Every year, we campaign for the better and shed light on a specific topic we stand for and care about at BearingPoint.

Diversity at BearingPoint

Consulting is a people business, and we need our people to challenge us to think differently because we are convinced that different ideas lead to the unexpected, to better outcomes, and that is key to achieving lasting success for them and for our clients. Diverse and inclusive teams shape our workforce in skills, experience, backgrounds, and personalities. It is one of our strengths and makes us better.

Our values

These beliefs guide us to achieve lasting success for our clients and our firm. Our purpose touches upon three core areas – people, innovation, and sustainability.

  • We are easy to work with

  • We create lasting outcomes

  • We empower people to succeed

More for people

We know that our success is a result of our people. We accomplish our purpose for our colleagues, our clients, and our society.

Among colleagues and clients, we celebrate collaboration. We seek to empower our teams to achieve personal and professional growth. And we’ve defined a framework with people-centricity at the very core to make sure that each member of the team knows that we care.

For our clients, we strive to unleash their potential, enabling them to transform their businesses for the better and build brighter futures.

In our society, we endeavor to leave a positive footprint on the planet through sustainability initiatives.

More for our planet

We are dedicated to becoming a more sustainable business with every passing day and we support our clients in accelerating their own sustainability journeys.

Sustainability has always been a core aspect of our work, which is why we continue to make meaningful strides towards a brighter future for our planet by proactively engaging in pressing matters pertaining to climate, biodiversity, and circular economy. To do more for our planet, BearingPoint has set ambitious science-based targets which were validated by the SBTi in April 2024. These ambitious targets represent BearingPoint’s unwavering commitment to comprehensive climate action, extending beyond its immediate operations to encompass the broader impacts of business activities.

Target 1: BearingPoint commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 53.8% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.

Target 2: BearingPoint also commits to reduce scope 3 GHG emissions from business travel 55% per FTE within the same timeframe.

More innovation

Innovation is integral to our business. We nurture an environment that encourages the exchange of ideas and the challenging of the status quo.

Our unique consulting approach allows us to create an ecosystem of leading services, innovations and solutions that drive continued growth.

We now have more than 20 IP products and services in our BearingPoint store. We have also forged partnerships with like-minded innovators. We work collaboratively with IFS on our joint venture, Arcwide, and in a sustainability-led partnership with SAP.
