SEYRING Consulting

What SEYRING Consulting does

SEYRING Consulting (legal entity: Seyring GmbH, registered in Düsseldorf, HRB 72356) is a privately-held German business development consulting firm founded in 2014 and headquartered in Hilden, south of Düsseldorf. Under the brand 'SEYRING Business Services', the firm sells six interconnected service lines — Business Development, Proposal Consulting, Market Entry Services, Social Media Marketing, Training & Certification (including APMP Foundation, Practitioner and Micro-Certification programs delivered through its APMP ATO status), and Interim Management — targeting B2B and B2G customers in five verticals: Telecom/IT, Aerospace, Defence, Transportation and Green Energy. Services are delivered either directly by SEYRING or through affiliated companies BidBox GmbH (proposal consulting and APMP training), BidBox Consulting GmbH (BD consulting) and BidBox Pvt. Ltd. (sales support, proposal management and market research from Gurgaon, India).

The company's core offering is non-software professional services: lead generation, capture planning, win-strategy development, proposal writing in German and English, public-tender navigation (German BAAINBw, EU, ESA, EUMETSAT), and market entry support for international firms — particularly from DACH, Portugal, Italy, MENA and India — entering the German market. SEYRING commercializes a proprietary BD-CMM 2.02 handbook (EUR 59 retail) and operates as an APMP Accredited Training Organization aligned with the Business Development Capability Maturity Model. Pricing is engagement-based for consulting and interim management, with social media marketing packages subscription-priced at EUR 1,200-14,000/month on 6-24 month terms; the firm does not disclose revenue, headcount, funding or any digital platform.

SEYRING is founder-owned and led by CEO Wolfram Seyring (30 years' BD and proposal experience at Bosch, Ericsson, Nokia Networks and Nokia Siemens Networks) with Martina Seyring in Office Management. The firm maintains association memberships (IBWF, VDI, APMP), has participated in Space Tech Expo Europe via the Enterprise Europe Network, and supports international SMEs pursuing German public procurement. There is no public listing, no disclosed institutional investor, no M&A activity, and no headcount disclosure in the source material — consistent with a small owner-operated boutique consulting practice.

Direct peers

• Lohfeld Consulting Group: US-based proposal management consulting firm offering capture planning, proposal reviews and APMP-aligned training. Highly comparable to SEYRING's proposal consulting and APMP training services delivered through BidBox GmbH.
• SM&A (now HII Mission Technologies): Acquired competitor in BD and proposal management for aerospace and defense, now part of Huntington Ingalls Industries. Directly comparable in defense/aerospace capture and proposal support, though operating at significantly larger scale.
• Strategic Proposals: UK-based proposal consultancy offering proposal management, bid writing, training and proposal automation software. Direct peer in proposal consulting and APMP-aligned training, comparable across the full BD lifecycle.
• Four Points: Proposal management and business development consultancy serving defense, intelligence and federal civilian agencies. Directly comparable to SEYRING's proposal consulting offering, especially for defense procurement clients.
• Competitive Business Strategies (CBSI): Small business BD and proposal management consultancy focused on US federal and defense markets. Comparable scale and service mix to SEYRING's proposal/capture work.
• Shipley Associates: Global leader in business development, capture management and proposal consulting with deep ties to aerospace, defense and government clients. Closest comparable to SEYRING's core BD/proposal services, and is explicitly named as a partner/reference for SEYRING's aerospace work.

Broad incumbents

• PA Consulting: Global consulting firm with strong European aerospace, defense and government practices. Overlaps with SEYRING in defense/aerospace capture support but operates at much larger scale with broader digital and engineering offerings.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Major US-headquartered management and technology consultancy with deep defense and federal civilian practices. A broader incumbent that competes for the same defense/aerospace capture and proposal budgets, though with far larger scale and a different delivery model.
• Deltek: Leading ERP, PPM and business intelligence provider for government contractors and professional services firms. Adjacent ecosystem player whose government-contract intelligence and project tools overlap with the workflow SEYRING supports for its BD/proposal clients.

Regional players

• Roland Berger: Leading German-headquartered management consultancy with deep aerospace, defense and industrial client base. While not a direct proposal-management peer, it competes for the same enterprise consulting budgets in DACH and overlaps in strategy and market-entry advisory.
