What is PRiSM?
PRiSM is short for (Projects integrating Sustainable Methods)PRISM is the de facto sustainability based project delivery method. It was developed for organizations to integrate project processes with sustainability initiatives in order to achieve business objectives while decreasing negative environmental impact.PRISM is a Process-based, structured project management methodology that highlights five areas of sustainability and for core project phases, when understood and effectively addressed, can reduce environmental impact in all types of projects. PRISM is based in the same ground as the PMBOK® Guide, APM Bok, and the ICB 3.0 with a framework of activities derived from ISO:14001, it focuses on specific areas and incorporates best practices to practically answer "how do I apply these concepts in my projects?”
PRiSM’s StrengthsPRISM has several features that are new to project management thus easily distinguishing it from other project management methodologies. Its true strength lies in its ease of use approach. Each of the following features supplements what each body of knowledge provides - through a practical, environmentally conscious, and repeatable approach.One of the most significant of PRISM's features is the concept of the sustainability management plan. This is a set of controls that govern aspects of a project to consider five measureable elements (People, Planet, Profit) and how they relate to the delivery of projects. Each are measured individually and as a complete package.Another important aspect of PRiSM is the Impact analysis. This is a new method for calculating risk as it measures it on five levels and takes into account the product of the project from cradle to grave rather than from initiation/pre-project to close/hand-off.The key points to PRiSM lie in a project manager’s personal values and ethics, accountability, ability to think beyond the scope without gold plating, and using leadership based on the global impact of the project.
In PRiSM Practitioner, participants are challenged in a case-study driven environment using GPM’s unique EnVex methodology.

Standard vs. Sustainable
Visible differences
In a standard project, principles will achieve business objectives and produce results most often targeted to improving the bottom line or adding a new service
