Founded in 1991, the firm employs approximately 20 consultants and senior advisors who deliver services across five integrated practices: Strategy, Organization, Project Management, Leadership and Collaboration, and Change Management, supplemented by Fachexpertisen (specialized studies in digital transformation, financial control, and effectiveness) and individual coaching. bcp's go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, with direct project-based engagements sold to public administrations, healthcare providers, higher-education institutions, nonprofit organizations, and SMEs primarily across German-speaking Switzerland; no proprietary technology platform, software product, app, API, or integration exists, and the firm is explicitly characterized as a traditional consulting firm without technology-stack dependencies.

Ownership and governance rest with the partner group under the chairmanship of Reto Stuber (President of the Board), with operational leadership distributed across partners Roman Macchi, Silvana Marazzi, and Daniel Frey (COO), supported by senior advisors and a roster of named consultants with prior experience in Swiss public administration, higher education, and corporate leadership roles.

Direct peers

• Ecoplan: Bern-based research and consulting firm specializing in economic, transport, and public-sector policy for Swiss federal and cantonal clients. Comparable to BCP as a long-standing Swiss boutique serving government and public institutions with custom advisory engagements.
• EBP Schweiz: Swiss consulting firm focused on planning, engineering, and management consulting for public infrastructure and government clients. Overlaps with BCP in serving cantonal/municipal public administration and educational institutions, with comparable boutique-style partner engagement in German-speaking Switzerland.
• INFRAS: Zurich-based research and consulting boutique specializing in mobility, energy, environment, and public-sector policy in Switzerland. Closely comparable to BCP in terms of boutique scale, public-administration focus, and German-speaking Switzerland footprint, though with an economic-policy/policy-evaluation angle.
• Polynomics: Swiss economic consulting firm in Olten serving public-sector clients with strategy, regulation, and economic analysis. Comparable boutique profile and public-sector orientation, though more quantitatively focused than BCP's organizational and change-management emphasis.
• BSS Volkswirtschaftliche Beratung: Basel-based economic consulting boutique serving public administration, healthcare, and education clients. Direct peer given shared Basel geography, similar boutique scale, and strong overlap with BCP's public-sector and healthcare engagement mix.
• Helbling Business Consulting: Swiss management and IT consulting group with a business consulting arm serving mid-market and public clients. Comparable as a Swiss-rooted consulting boutique, although Helbling is broader in scale and service scope.

Broad incumbents

• McKinsey & Company (Switzerland): Global strategy consulting firm with a Zurich office serving Swiss public administration, healthcare systems, and higher education institutions. Comparable on offering (strategy, organization, transformation) but operates at vastly larger scale and competes with BCP for cantonal and federal mandates.
• Bain & Company: Global strategy consulting firm with a Zurich office active in Swiss public-sector transformation and higher education. Comparable in strategy and organizational design offerings but competes from a global rather than regional positioning.
• PwC Switzerland: Big-4 firm in Switzerland with public-sector and people & organization practices overlapping with BCP's strategy, governance, and change-management services. Differs in scale, breadth of services, and audit-adjacent positioning.

Regional players

• INWT Statistics: Berlin-based consulting firm specializing in data analytics and organizational decision support. Partial thematic overlap with BCP's data-governance and process-efficiency engagements, though operating in the DACH region outside Switzerland.
