Task contents and levels

A dynamic career with a lot of responsibilities and a high learning factor - how does that sound?


We stand for fast career opportunities and offer different perspectives. There are no guidelines as to how long a consultant has to stay at one career level - you influence the pace of your development together with us.


We offer a comprehensive range of training and development opportunities for individual career paths. In addition to specialist training topics, our consultants also receive personal development training and individual coaching.

Our Business Units

BIC product group management and procurement processes

We optimize purchasing and procurement through improvements in purchasing management - focusing on process consulting and price optimization. 


Together, we create the basis for conditional improvements that improve the company's results, ensure availability, and take sustainability into account in all decisions.



Efficient structures & digital solutions

Increasing efficiency through automation and digitalization of relevant transactional, tactical, and strategic processes is one of the most important success factors for future-proof purchasing. 


From spend management to index-based benchmarking with the innovative Kerkhoff Costing Cloud, we support our customers in their digital transformation. We know the challenges and deliver pragmatic solutions.



Negotiation expertise

We systematize your most important negotiations in purchasing and sales. Our tried-and-tested and scientifically based methods from game theory, mechanism design, auction, and negotiation theory as well as behavioral economics and psychology give you a crucial advantage.


This allows you to maximize competition in markets with alternatives or turn around difficult negotiation situations in seller's markets, cartels, and monopolies.


Optimizing manufacturing costs

We analyze the manufacturing costs of your suppliers and/or your products in comparison to the competition.


The approach is a targeted cost engineering process to support procurement negotiations or product innovations.


Functionality, quality, and reliability, in short, the added value of a product or service must meet customer expectations at an optimum cost ratio.





Increased performance across the whole value chain

Together, we ensure efficient planning and coordination throughout the entire supply chain. We reduce the risk of bottlenecks and uncover inefficient processes. Further savings are achieved by optimizing working capital. As a team, we increase the long-term capacity for innovation in the supply chain by charting the right course.


Improved adaptability creates more flexibility and, through satisfied customers, leads to improved profitability and a sustainable increase in resilience.
