Stop tracking opportunities in spreadsheets. We configure a capture workflow that matches how your team actually works.
What is Automated Capture Management for Government Contracts?
Automated capture management replaces spreadsheet tracking with a purpose-built system for government contracting.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is automated capture management for government contracts?
Automated capture management uses software to track government contract opportunities from initial identification through proposal submission. It automates pipeline stages, go/no-go decisions, task assignments, deadline tracking, and team coordination—replacing manual spreadsheet tracking.
How does capture workflow automation improve win rates?
Automation ensures no deadlines are missed, tasks are assigned to the right people, and leadership has visibility into pipeline health. Teams using automated capture management report better decision-making from go/no-go data and more time for strategic capture activities instead of administrative tracking.
Can you match our existing government contract capture process?
Yes. We configure the workflow to match your current process rather than forcing you into a generic template. If you have specific pipeline stages (opportunity, qualification, capture, proposal, submitted), approval gates, or terminology, we build that into your system.
How do automated deadline reminders work for government proposals?
We configure automated reminders for proposal deadlines, Q&A cut-offs, teaming agreement dates, and internal milestones. Reminders can go to specific team members via email, Slack, or Teams. The system calculates working days and adjusts for agency holidays.
Can multiple people work on the same government contract opportunity?
Yes. We set up role-based assignments (capture manager, proposal manager, SMEs, reviewers) with appropriate access levels. Team members see their tasks and deadlines while capture leads see the full pipeline and can reassign work as needed.
Does capture management integrate with Salesforce or other GovCon CRMs?
We configure bidirectional sync with Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, and other CRMs. Opportunities flow from discovery to your CRM as leads/opportunities, and updates sync back automatically. See our Enterprise Integration page for full details.
How long does capture management automation setup take?
Basic capture workflow setup takes 2-3 weeks including process mapping, system configuration, and team training. Complex implementations with CRM integration and custom workflows may take 4-6 weeks.
