Prisma is a supply chain control tower empowering WFP operations with key descriptive, predictive and prescriptive analytics to support upstream and downstream supply planning and forward-looking risk anticipation. Prisma improves the efficiency of operations by enabling faster and improved planning decisions and action to avoid predictable operational issues, such as supply-related pipeline breaks, sub-optimal sourcing or transport solutions, or stock losses due to expiration.
WFP operations in each country are unique but share core processes, structures, roles and objectives. Therefore, Prisma’s modular system is designed as a standard corporate solution that is configurable and flexible to the individual contexts of WFP operations.
Prisma automates complex analyses and reconciliations across units and systems that would otherwise require a high workload and be subject to human errors. This enables better time management of key staff, allowing them more time to focus on other tasks with greater impact for beneficiaries. The tool also promotes cross-functional alignment and reduces siloed work, increasing transparency and robustness in operations management.
