Mind­set

Trust, transparency
and responsibility.

Our entre­pren­eur­ial activ­it­ies are char­ac­ter­ised by the prin­ciples of hon­esty, open­ness and team spirit. We create the space needed for indi­vidu­als to nur­ture their skills as we believe that people who decide and are respons­ible for their efforts are best motiv­ated to achieve. As a nation­ally and inter­na­tion­ally oper­at­ing con­sultancy, we are aware of our eco­lo­gical and social respons­ib­il­ity and will only ever take on pro­jects that are com­pat­ible with our values.

We work effi­ciently.

Our com­pany size and flat hier­arch­ies enable us to work in a resource-effi­cient and eco­nom­ical manner. 

Work processes

Our approach to working hinges on a comprehensive exchange of knowledge, pronounced creativity, and standardised quality processes. In our projects and everyday office life, we promote cross-generational collaboration through interdisciplinary teams, the acquisition and sharing of knowledge, and the constant integration of creative concepts and perspectives. We are convinced that quality correlates with experience and knowledge – and we promote both through internal and external training programmes. 

PROPROJEKT Youth Council

To drive participation and co-determination, in 2024 we set up a Youth Council that proactively involves the youngest generation in shaping the future of our company. To strengthen our corporate culture, the Youth Council challenges the management at regular intervals on all issues it identifies, assessing whether corporate actions are in line with our corporate mission and vision.

By setting up a Youth Council, we are creating a platform where our young talents bring their ideas and perspectives directly to bear with the management team. In this way, we can continuously and critically reappraise our progress, develop fresh and innovative approaches, and ensure that we always have our finger on the pulse of things.

We act sus­tain­ably.

We are firmly aware of our envir­on­mental respons­ib­il­ity for future gen­er­a­tions and act­ively began optim­ising our office pro­cesses back in 2020 with a view to making cli­mate-friendly and sus­tain­able changes. Since 2022, we have been record­ing and ana­lys­ing our cor­por­ate carbon foot­print annu­ally. This way, we can sys­tem­at­ic­ally record and imple­ment poten­tial improve­ments on a con­sol­id­ated basis. In addi­tion, start­ing in 2024 we have vol­un­tar­ily pub­lished a declar­a­tion on the German Sus­tain­ab­il­ity Code, taking into account the EFFAS per­form­ance indic­at­ors.

Corporate Carbon Footprint

To minimise our ecological footprint, we pursue a data-based approach and calculate our corporate carbon footprint annually with the help of the myclimate international climate protection organisation. We record all energy consumed in our value chain, such as the energy consumption of our office locations (water, electricity, heat, etc.) as well as our entire corporate travel activities (flights, trains, overnight stays, etc.) and finance high-quality carbon offset projects to compensate for unavoidable emissions. In 2023, our CO2e emissions totalled 82 tonnes. This corresponds to a per capita consumption of 3.53 tonnes.

Sustainability report

We are convinced that transparency and compliance with self-defined sustainability goals create a fundamental sense of trust. To this end, we publish an annual sustainability report in accordance with the requirements of the German Sustainability Code (DNK). The DNK is a transparency standard for sustainability reporting that is designed in particular for use by SMEs. It helps them to critically review their internal business processes as regards responsibility for climate and environmental protection as well as compliance with human rights and governance standards.

In our opinion, sustainable action and economic success are not mutually contradictory. Rather, both aspects are compatible and correlate positively. We therefore pursue a sustainable corporate strategy that is forward-looking and crisis-proof as we are convinced this makes us ourselves more resilient.

WE PRO­MOTE SOCIAL
INTER­AC­TION.

For us, fair treat­ment and trust­ing cooper­a­tion within our team and with our busi­ness part­ners forms the very basis of all our entre­pren­eur­ial activ­it­ies. We are con­fid­ent that our organ­isa­tional cul­ture fosters indi­vidu­al­ity, innov­a­tion and cre­ativ­ity and equally pro­motes per­sonal respons­ib­il­ity. We are com­mit­ted to team spirit, diversity, and respect.

Our values

In our daily interactions, we seek to ensure the compatibility of work and family life through personal working hours, gender equality, and the exchange of knowledge and experience between all age and professional groups. Mutual trust and nurturing responsibility as well as an open error culture, together guarantee motivation, satisfaction and ultimately the success of the whole team.

Our social commitment

In addition to our core business, we have been supporting selected initiatives in Frankfurt am Main and Germany for many years to promote our environment and are active on a voluntary basis, for example, with the football pitch league in Frankfurt am Main, Help for Children with Cancer Frankfurt, and the Special Olympics Germany.

Our value system is based on a high degree of autonomy and personal responsibility. This gives us all the freedom to bring our individual skills to bear in a self-determined and fruitful manner.
