The CMS, recognized as the standard global language of government contracting, and the comprehensive CMBOK collectively offer a unified framework to define, discuss, and advance contract management phases, domains, competencies, and skills. Our adoption of these standards reaffirms FPSs support of NCMA and dedication to cultivating excellence and promoting a common language within the contract management community, said Andy King, President of FPS.
Mr. King stated, "By aligning our training courses with the adoption of CMS and CMBOK, we are poised to provide even greater support to our thriving FPS education community.

Through this collaboration, FPS aims to empower its clients to not only meet compliance requirements but also gain a competitive edge by harnessing their newfound expertise.
