PRISM - Overview

PRISM is a powerful, web-based application that provides government agencies with the tools needed to effectively support the complete acquisition and grants management lifecycles, from initial planning and requisitioning through award and closeout.  

Built upon a modular and highly configurable SOA compliant architecture, PRISM provides agencies with the flexibility to select and utilize the functionality that best supports their mission and to define the internal business rules that will govern those processes.  Agencies that take advantage of PRISM's comprehensive foundation are better positioned to focus funding and resources on solving the business problems that are unique to their mission.  And, PRISM's extendable architecture provides agencies with confidence that it can adapt to support their future requirements.

PRISM is fully integrated with FedConnect, the vendor and grants applicant portal, and supports secure, bi-directional communication and structured data exchange between government and these communities.
