Overview
FPS and Shipley Associates (Shipley) are proud to partner in offering this exclusive workshop, Capture Management for Contracts & Pricing Professionals.

This intensive 2-day Capture Management Workshop introduces participants to the industry’s leading framework for winning federal contracts. Through lecture, group discussion, and case-based exercises, attendees will learn how to identify and qualify opportunities, assess competitors, build winning strategies, and position their organization before RFP release. The course is highly interactive and designed specifically for FPS’ audience of contracts, pricing, and acquisition professionals, with a focus on connecting capture strategies to pricing, contracting, and proposal execution.

Why Shipley?
Shipley is the gold standard in government contracting capture and proposal management. The Shipley Business Development Process™ is trademarked and has been adopted by over 90% of the top government contractors. If you plan to stay in this industry, familiarity with the Shipley Process is not optional, it is the language of winning in GovCon. This is your chance to learn directly from the firm that has defined how the GovCon industry competes and wins.

Who Should Attend: Whether you are in contracts, pricing, program management, sales, technical leadership, or serve as a subject matter expert (SME), this course applies to you. Understanding capture management helps every role align with business strategy, customer expectations, and competitive dynamics—so your contributions lead directly to higher win rates.
