BearingPoint Extends SAP Enterprise-Service-Oriented Architecture, Composite Applications Offerings Critical to Business Transformation.

Award-Winning Business Acquisition Management Solution Offering Leveraged across Lines of Business

MCLEAN, Va. -- BearingPoint, Inc. (NYSE:BE), one of the world's largest management and technology consulting firms, announced today it will expand its award-winning Business Acquisition Management Solution (BAMS) offering, building on successes like the opening of centers of excellence in Germany and Brazil, to focus on enterprise service-oriented architecture (E-SOA) development and extend the composite application across multiple lines of business.

The company's solution strategy, outlined in a newly released white paper, "Organizational Transformation and E-SOA Perspectives," describes how enterprises can align their IT and business operations by building on SAP's E-SOA and collaborative cross-applications. Susan Wright, BearingPoint managing director and global composite applications solutions leader will discuss further the strategy relative to the BAMS at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 24, in the BearingPoint Theater, booth #1205, at the 2007 SAPPHIRE conference in Atlanta.

A key aspect of BearingPoint's strategy is taking a "demand-driven" approach to IT development. Rather than simply building new IT functionality because the technology now makes it possible, IT actions must be triggered by business needs. This in turn mandates that companies seek out, develop and adopt a new set of integrated skills that help their SAP team operate in a more holistic way.

"By taking this approach to E-SOA, you can finally begin to align IT and business in a way that achieves true organizational responsiveness and agility," said Wright.

BearingPoint's SAPPHIRE booth will include kiosk demonstrations of innovative solutions like SOA, business intelligence, performance management and composite applications, including BAMS, a 2006 Pinnacle Award-winning solution. Originally developed for the Public Sector Aerospace segment, BearingPoint is now extending the solution across additional verticals like energy, manufacturing, engineering and construction.
