“I was overwhelmed and unsure of an appropriate route to take to begin the response to the RFP. I was able to provide the information and Utley Strategies created the content perfectly. I submitted a proposal that I was confident in, and we will use the same content in future proposals.”

The Simplified Shipley Process: 4 Key Steps to Win in 2025

One of the most recognized proposal processes is the Shipley Proposal Process. The Association of Proposal Management Professionals (APMP) recognizes Shipley as a top process and offers certification on it.

While it is an excellent process used by many major organizations, for some smaller teams, Shipley can be overkill. If your team consists of only a handful of people (or maybe even just you) and you respond to fairly simple RFPs, then the full process may cause more pain than benefit.

That’s why we follow a simplified version to reap the benefits without having to fill out a robust team with more meetings than are needed.
