APMP - Bid & Proposal Management

The Association for Proposal Management Professionals (APMP) is an internationally recognised association promoting best practice through a diverse range of disciplines within proposal and bid management. Their mission statement is:

"To advance the arts, sciences, and technology of new business acquisition and to promote the professionalism of those engaged in those pursuits."

In order to achieve their mission, the APMP have developed a set of three examinations:
