This time I am not talking about the color of money or what one wears on St. Patrick’s Day. Introducing a fairly new KPI – the environment!
Over the last decade, most clients have gradually developed interest in non-financial performance aspects, including concerns on the environment, human factor, quality and business ethics. This tendency has gone a long way to create a major new KPI: sustainability.
Sound sustainability enhances and contributes to project portfolio success in the following manner:
- Decision-making factor—Clients today greatly consider socio-environmental trends in their investment analysis and business decision-making process.
- Credibility factor—Globally clients, end-users and suppliers have developed interest in rating how green their partners are in order to appreciate their credibility.
- Ethical requirement—Most business sectors today have developed ethical concerns that are formalized and instituted. Conformity involves strictly abiding to the concerns by maintaining sustainability.
