Management and technology consultancy BearingPoint has partnered with SAP to launch a new cloud-based platform designed to streamline the management of electric vehicle fleets and charging infrastructure. This integrated solution provides a single interface to help businesses advance their electrification goals while enabling charge point operators (CPOs) to manage their assets more holistically.
Key Highlights
- The platform offers a unified, cloud-based solution for managing both electric vehicles and charging equipment, improving operational and cost efficiency.
- It provides end-to-end automated charging processes, from fleet management to billing and invoicing, by integrating BearingPoint ETM.next with SAP E-Mobility.
- Users can optimize their total cost of ownership (TCO) through features like smart charging, unified billing, and optimized vehicle routing.
- The system includes comprehensive asset management with live monitoring of charging infrastructure health, energy use, and efficiency to minimize downtime.
- Built on the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), the solution offers scalability and seamless integration with existing SAP landscapes, including SAP S/4HANA.
A Unified Solution for Electrification
As the market for electric vehicles evolves, businesses face the challenge of managing complex and often fragmented systems. This new platform addresses this issue by consolidating vehicle and charging infrastructure management into a single, intuitive interface. It delivers end-to-end capabilities that cover everything from charge card management to monitoring Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) and tracking charging sessions. The platform also simplifies the process of gathering data for ESG reporting requirements.
For small and mid-sized organizations, the solution’s built-in billing and invoicing features offer significant advantages by integrating directly with existing IT and SAP business process landscapes. According to Nina London, Partner at BearingPoint, the platform “is a game-changer for fleet operators looking to future-proof their mobility strategies.”
Technical Integration and Advanced Analytics
The e-mobility solution runs on the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) and comes ready to integrate with SAP S/4HANA, ensuring compatibility and scalability for businesses already using SAP systems. Its foundation in smart charging capabilities allows the platform to evolve into a comprehensive tool for reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) for fleet operators.
Furthermore, advanced analytics provide critical insights into charging behaviors and route planning. This data helps businesses further reduce energy costs, maximize the use of their assets, and improve their overall sustainability efforts. BearingPoint offers tailored configurations and value-added services such as real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance to enhance system performance.
The launch of this platform expands BearingPoint’s portfolio of software solutions built on SAP BTP. The new offering was officially unveiled at the SAP Sapphire 2025 event in Madrid, where the company showcased its capabilities to drive the future of sustainable fleet management.
