Liberata joins the Accounts Payable Association
Committing to our Accounts Payable future
We are delighted to announce that we’ve officially joined the Accounts Payable Association (APA) — the UK’s leading professional body for accounts payable practitioners.
This step reflects our ongoing commitment to developing our people, sharing best practices, and ensuring our clients benefit from the very latest thinking in AP process excellence.
Why we’ve joined the Accounts Payable Association
At Liberata, we don’t just deliver Accounts Payable (AP) services, we combine expert practitioners with technology and innovation to help clients resolve operational challenges. As Bob Jones, Service Delivery Director at Liberata, explains in our recent discussion with the APA, our teams work closely with development colleagues to constantly innovate, creating solutions that address real-world AP issues.
By joining the APA, we’re giving our teams access to an extensive professional community where they can connect, learn, and share insights with their peers. Fifty of our AP professionals will directly benefit from APA membership, enabling them to stay current with best practices and industry developments.
Our investment goes beyond membership alone. We’re implementing structured professional development for our teams using the APA’s ACT Skills Assessment training software, complementing traditional on-the-job training with a formal framework that enhances consistency and quality.
We are also working towards our APA quality accreditation, which further reflects our commitment to maintaining high standards and providing the best possible service for our clients.
On our APA partnership, Bob Jones said:
“We’re thrilled to formalise our membership with the APA. This reflects our belief in continuous improvement, professional development and a desire to connect with the broader AP community. This investment proves our commitment to our people, tools and technology, and industry best practices.”
We are presented an Accounts Payable Association Masterclass webinar on the topic of Mastering AP controls to prevent errors and fraud, on 28th August –watch it here.
What this means for our customers
Our customers can be confident that Liberata’s AP services are shaped and delivered by people who are active members of their professional community, and we invest in their continuous learning. They can also be assured that our solutions are tested, accredited, and grounded in best practices, and that we are a partner who continually looks ahead to anticipate and address industry challenges.
By engaging with APA at every level from membership and training to accreditation and as a solution partner, we are demonstrating our commitment to quality, innovation, and service excellence. We’re proud to become part of this industry community and look forward to sharing more updates from our APA partnership soon.
