Company Overview

About BPM

BPM is one of the largest public accounting and advisory firms in the nation, but they’re built differently. They’ve designed their business around people—Because People Matter.

The Challenge

Effectively handling change management

When BPM decided to switch recognition vendors, their goal was simple: create an exciting, engaging culture of appreciation that motivates employees. They didn't want the change to be a flash in the pan, however—their aim was long-term momentum.

The Solutions

Nailing implementation with purpose-driven strategies

BPM knew first impressions mattered, so they launched Awardco with a bang, including a virtual live event to kick-off the new platform and activities such as raffles and other prize giveaways.

To sustain that excitement, BPM also gave employees a quarterly allotment of points to recognize coworkers and colleagues—creating an instant incentive to use the platform actively.

This ability to use Awardco in creative ways has paid off. Today, BPM boasts 34 active recognition programs, driving continuous involvement across the company.

Incentivizing ongoing engagement

BPM has continued to fuel engagement with wellness programs, birthdays, and other milestone celebrations, ensuring every employee feels valued and seen throughout the year. This proactive approach has tied recognition into BPM's every-day culture, creating employees who feel supported from day one.

The Results

Getting everyone—literally everyone—involved

With Awardco, BPM has built a culture of frequent, meaningful, and motivating recognition that truly touches each employee. They boast a 98% recognition rate, meaning nearly every single one of their employees has been recognized on the platform—one of the highest rates ever seen!
