The innovators of the Business Development lifecycle. Shipley has full ownership rights of the intellectual property associated with the Business Development Capability Maturity Model BD-CMM®. This model includes research from many industries and market sectors and formulates a best practice model for evaluating the maturity of your business development organization. The model provides companies a method to identify gaps in people, processes, tools, systems, and culture of your BD organization, helping you establish a “blueprint” for improvement.
The model represents industry best practices that are well-documented in our best practice guidebooks: The Shipley Proposal Guide™, the Shipley Capture Guide™, and the Shipley Business Development Lifecycle Guide™. Shipley helps executives and leaders assess their strengths and gaps – using this information to formulate a plan for improving efficiency, effectiveness, and overall results within the business development organization. This Blueprint to Winning experience is the basis for a leadership session facilitated by an Executive Shipley Consultant.
