BearingPoint had revenues of €712m in 2018 and has a headcount of ~4,300 with ~170 partners and 39 offices in 22 countries.
BearingPoint received its first request for RPA PoCs in 2016, and recognizing that RPA was going to become important, established a firm-wide initiative and RPA CoE. This was confirmed as requests for RPA governance support emerged in 2017, and, at this point, BearingPoint established partnerships with Blue Prism, UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and NICE, with strong RPA growth following in 2018.
In 2018, BearingPoint’s firmwide initiative was coordinated by six partners, including one for the Nordics, one for France, and three for Germany: one each covering the public service sector, the consumer industries, and banking.
Overall, BearingPoint sees its role as assisting its clients in moving through the stages of “isolated automation” through “integrated automation” to “managed autonomy.”
In the short-term, BearingPoint is developing its capability in “integrated automation” to assist organizations in moving beyond “isolated automation” to develop end-to-end automation from capture and interpretation of unstructured data through the application of RPA and AI to handle rule-based and judgment-based processing. The firm is looking to package standard platforms/offerings in this area.
