PRIME Scoring

The cornerstone of accountability in PRIME, enabling you to measure and manage your impact.

The method of PRIME Scoring requires each organisation to score itself against each of the 6 PRIME Principles.  The total top score is therefore 30, but you can get 6 for showing up (Aspiring against each of the Principles), and 12 if you can show that you are doing anything to further each of those 6 Principles.

The PRIME Principles are statements of ambition for how organisations (particularly SME’s) can satisfy Environmental, Social and Governance goals.

As the old adage goes, however, if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.  With this in mind, we have developed a challenging and sector-agnostic system to track and manage your progress against the Principles.
