What Smplicity does

BearingPoint is a global management and technology consulting firm headquartered in Europe with delivery presence across 24+ countries spanning Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, North America, and Africa. The firm serves clients in five primary verticals: Insurance, Consumer Goods and Retail, Automotive, Government/Public Sector, and Utilities, with services organized around customer experience transformation, digital strategy, and large-scale technology implementation.

The firm's core platform expertise is Salesforce, where it holds Summit Partner status, the highest tier in Salesforce's partner ecosystem, and operates a delivery network of 180+ qualified consultants. Its flagship methodology, CX First, structures customer-experience transformation programs for enterprise clients. Through its BearingPoint Capital sub-brand, the firm also offers M&A advisory and transaction services, extending the franchise beyond pure consulting into deal support. The firm is B Corp certified, indicating governance and stakeholder-accountability commitments that are increasingly relevant in ESG-driven procurement.

BearingPoint generates revenue primarily through project-based consulting engagements, multi-year transformation programs, and advisory mandates. Its go-to-market combines top-tier platform partnerships (notably Salesforce) with verticalized solution stacks tailored to industry-specific regulatory, operational, and customer-experience requirements. The firm competes against Big Four advisory practices, global systems integrators, and boutique Salesforce consultancies, and uses its multi-country delivery footprint as a primary differentiation lever for cross-border enterprise programs.
