NextStage
The growth platform built for business development, capture, and proposal teams.
NextStage is a customer relationship management platform built specifically for government contractors. It addresses the challenge of fragmented business development workflows by combining market intelligence, pipeline management, and proposal writing into a single system. The platform is designed to help teams centralize opportunity tracking, reduce manual data entry, and manage the full capture-to-proposal lifecycle within a secure environment that meets FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency standards.
The platform is organized into three main modules. Market Intelligence aggregates opportunity data from sources such as SAM.gov, FPDS, and GSA eBuy, and includes saved searches and competitor information. The CRM and Pipeline Management module provides Shipley-ready processes, customizable workflows and fields, and integrations with SharePoint, Google Drive, and Outlook. The AI-Powered Proposal Suite includes an AI Compliance Matrix, live document editing, and a dedicated proposal board. NextStage also supports single sign-on with identity providers including Microsoft Azure AD, Okta, and Google.
NextStage is intended for business development, capture, and proposal teams working with government contracts, including those operating under DFARS and CMMC requirements. The website offers a free demo and directs visitors to a pricing page for further details.
