GPM Global, Sustainability Content Provider, & PieMatrix, Project Management Company, Form Alliance

BURLINGTON, Vt., Jan. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Sustainability is the new hot topic for project managers in the public and private sectors. GPM Global announced today the formation of a strategic alliance that will integrate their PRiSM sustainability methods with the PieMatrix Pie online project management platform. Where the project management of yesterday focuses only on inputs and outputs, sustainable project management takes into account benefits realization and the project's overall impact on society, the environment and the economy from an asset lifecycle perspective.

"It's about innovation, and taking ownership of the greater societal need one project at a time," according to Joel Carboni, President of GPM Global, developer of PRiSM (Projects integrating Sustainable Methods), a project management framework now available in over 140 countries.

"GPM users were asking for a tool to help them execute real projects with PRiSM, and if possible, improve on their results with every project. That's what made our Pie software a perfect fit. Our patent-pending dynamic template-to-action system allows PRiSM users to spawn new projects with Joel's methodology baked right in, and help them execute better every time," according to Paul Dandurand, Founder and CEO of PieMatrix.

The partnership of GPM Global and PieMatrix gives portfolio and project managers an "Out of the box solution for end-to-end sustainable project management from day one," according to Carboni. The companies' founders feel passionate that this represents a big step forward to implementing sustainable project standards internationally, and making a measurable positive impact for people and the planet.
