Any opinions on this outfit from people familiar with them?:

Shipley is one of the main proposal methodology consulting firms in
the United States, the other being SM&A. If you want a much less
expensive glimpse at the Shipley method than you'll get by engaging
them as consultants or going through their paid training, you can
order the following book from Amazon.com:

Shipley Associates Proposal Guide for Business and Technical Professionals
http://www.amazon.com/Associates-Proposal-Business-Technical-Professionals/dp/0971424411/

Amazon.com has it for $59.95, but it seems to be backordered; it may
be available for immediate shipment from Shipley
(http://www.shipleywins.com/books_tools/proposal_guide.html)

It's as close as there is to a "standard text" in the field of
proposal development, and forms the basis of the best practices and
certifications for the Association of Proposal Management
Professionals (apmp.org).

By the way, if you do proposal work, APMP is worth joining for their
quarterly journal alone, but doubly or triply so if there's an active
local chapter near you. Susan, I seem to remember that you're in NC,
and there's an active Carolina chapter based in the RTP area.

Hope this helps.
