Our values

We work according to the principles of transparency, thriftiness and professionalism. By professionalism we mean efficiency and effectiveness in terms of performance and costs.

We are a “social enterprise”: We work cost-covering and non-profit oriented.

We ensure awareness in the areas of solidarity and climate protection. We credibly advocate a fairer distribution of resources.

We stand by our partners with help and advice even after the completion of the project.

 

This means in detail:

An open exchange of experiences with the partner and donation organizations

We offer cost effective and high quality solutions for project implementation.

We are interested in an open exchange of experiences

Together we look for financing and implementation possibilities.

We offer our partner organizations technical support in the implementation of their projects.

We maintain contact with other NGOs and communicate our experience in development cooperation.

 

The relationship with project partners

We strive for a fast delivery.

We do everything to meet the requirements of high quality and competent advice.

We take care of the smoothest possible project execution.

We deal responsibly with the donations and public funds entrusted to us.

We are looking for the cheapest way for purchase and transport, but we attach great importance to quality, safety and the environment.

For BBM’s major project, we are not looking for the cheapest, but for the best, ecologically sustainable and yet cost-saving solutions.

 

The relationship with our Suppliers

When selecting suppliers of products or services, we attach great importance to high quality standards.

We expect high service- and product quality and the adherence to deadlines. We want fair negotiations.

We need competent contact persons with a high degree of reliability and expertise in advice and sales.

We base our business relationships on equal partners and expect to be met on an equal footing.

We prefer business partners who can guarantee compliance with environmental standards.

 

Our cultural understanding

A different country, different customs. Our work can only succeed if we are prepared to respond to our counterpart with his perhaps different ideas.

We are interested in the situation of our project partners and try to keep us up to date with information from the respective countries of operation.

We are sensitive to other cultures and try to understand them.

We are not only a technical partner, but also a social partner, however, we do not want to patronise our project partners. We meet everyone on equal footing and with respect
