The ACP is an impartial evaluation. The registration process is in no way linked to these activities. It is important to note that recognition is not an endorsement of any single associate consultant, and does not indicate that using an ACP-listed organization would make the certification audit any easier for the client, but is to help to contribute to the clean up in the consulting industry by providing a list of consultants who BSI believes are credible and offer an acceptable service in terms of value and performance.
