Saarbrücken, 26.01.2023 (PresseBox) - To kick off the new year, the Scheer Group announced the acquisition of American consulting firm BPM-D by its subsidiary, Scheer Americas Inc. Thereby, it is holding steady on its ambitious expansion course in 2023. Through this acquisition, the software development and consulting firm is growing its global footprint, adding a third location in Philadelphia to its established offices in Boston and Dover.

This is the corporate group’s response to the high demand for business process expertise on the North American market. It aims to successfully combine SAP's Signavio business process transformation solutions with Scheer's own innovative solutions in the field of digital transformation.

Rouven Morato, General Manager of the SAP Signavio segment at SAP, on the profitable alliance: “U.S. companies are becoming increasingly reliant on optimized business processes for the success and resilience of their operations. End-to-end processes play a decisive role in SAP’s solution portfolio. We have had a trusting partnership with both the Scheer Group and BPM-D in the past. This acquisition will create a powerful player on the North American market that will take the process transformation of our joint customers to a new level.”

The American market is particularly interesting to Scheer because it represents an important hub for global enterprises. With its many well-trained professionals with extensive SAP experience, it also offers enormous opportunities and vast potential. In BPM-D, Scheer is acquiring an established consulting firm that has maintained close ties with Scheer companies for many years. BPM-D has long supported its customers in improving their performance and productivity through cross-functional business and information technology initiatives. Within the Scheer Group, the acquisition will intertwine the dual approach of process discipline and implementation experience even more closely – a combination that offers significant added-value to digital enterprise transformation.

Prof. Dr. August-Wilhelm Scheer, founder and Advisory Board Chairman of Scheer Group, is pleased with the growth initiative in the U.S.: “Our process DNA has proved to be a decisive success factor as domestic and international markets face a series of crises. Our focus on business process management is in very high demand right now and represents an important component in our partnership with SAP.”

Mario Baldi, CEO of the Scheer Group, stressed the importance of this close collaboration: “A stable partnership is characterized by trust. What’s more, we have repeatedly demonstrated our courage to try new things in the four decades that Scheer has been working closely with SAP.” Together with Dr. Mathias Kirchmer, CEO of BPM-D, he emphasized the added value for the Group’s customers: “In the future, we will be able to offer an expanded portfolio together on the U.S. market. With more extensive services, a broad spectrum of experience, and a strong, growing team, this latest acquisition by the Scheer Group will pave the way to further growth in North America.”
