The Sustainability Consulting Services market size is estimated at $16.99 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $54.76 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 26.38 percent during the forecast period (2025-2030) according to Mordor Intelligence. In a developing nation like the Philippines, for businesses that operate or belong to categories of large to heavy industries, procuring services related to environmental consulting has become a necessity due to which environmental and sustainability solutions and services are in demand. Additionally, clients face challenges in securing permit approvals within a reasonable period due to the intersection of layers and branches of various government institutions.
In this regard, Prism Express Consulting comes in with its specialization in acquiring development permits from the concerned government agencies for projects that are heavily grounded on environmental compliance. The Philippines’ environmental compliance system goes through a long tedious process of local consultation, studies preparation, data analysis, stakeholder negotiations, and others and consumes a substantial amount of time and responsibilities.
“Prism Express Consulting manages them using its wealth of experience and availability of professional experts and environmental specialists that offer reliable solutions to either a particular or even a broader sense of the client’s problems, which usually come in forms of technical, legal, and in some cases political context”, mentions Engr Allan R. Plete, President, Prism Express Consulting.
Service Excellence
The company believes in the motto, “There’s no single fix solution even for two exactly similar business problems or situations”. And even for almost two exactly similar business characters, they will differ either or both in their priorities and targets. Given the sheer number of local agencies and authorities in the Philippines, the country’s policies and regulations are influenced by a diverse local administration. Countrywide, the Philippines is comprised of layers of Administrations and Offices (eg. regional, provincial, municipal up to the barangay levels), thus, securing business approval passes through these layers, which becomes very unique and challenging. This is where Prism Express Consulting offers its unique solution to these problems through careful and scientific analysis of issues at hand, team planning, field experts’ deployment, and, finally, straightforward but accurate communication to its clientele.
The list of clients and projects that the company has rendered its services to ranges from small to very large corporations. One benchmark example showcasing the company’s capabilities is its service engagement with the current three out of four key and prominent local telecom companies in the Philippines today. For some other project engagements, Prism Express Consulting has repeat customers or clients who had sought its services and expertise after the successful completion of projects with them.
Prism Express Consulting is comprised of a diverse pool of professionals ranging from engineers to architects, geologists, biologists, chemists, social scientists, risk assessors, auditors, and others who combine and consolidate the experts’ assessments and analyses in addressing a variety of clients’ needs. “Today, we are assembling young and technology-savvy graduates and professionals to join the field of environmental consulting”, states Engr Allan.
While some companies with lacking or not-so-complete regulatory registrations still exist and continue to operate similarly to Prism Express Consulting, the availability of such regulatory registrations gives the company confidence and a certain level of integrity and credibility for companies and clients including international corporations. Simply put, the company’s accreditation with the government regulators is a full recognition of its competence and specialized capabilities in offering services at par using global norms and standards. As mentioned earlier, while some consultancy providers still operate in the country despite lacking accreditation or compliance, most of their target clients or industries are relatively those that are small or locally established. “Our EMB accreditation gives us the confidence and competence to accommodate and cater to international and globally recognized businesses”, he adds.
Evolving with the Industry
In the Philippines, official government documents are circulated and published for public information. Prism Express usually conducts meetings with the local agencies and authorities, thus relevant policies and information that affect the projects are easily conveyed. One of the mandatory requirements of the regulatory bodies of the Philippines government is to require companies like Prism Express to submit periodic reports (annually). That report reflects feedback information and comments generated from the industries that the company has been engaged in during the period. This gives the government bodies an idea of how the businesses of today run the industries, which also aids in the updating of certain policies if and when necessary. This also serves as part of the feedback mechanism that the government provides to service providers like Prism Express.
Using our wealth of experience, professional acuity, and environmental expertise, we provide reliable solutions to our clients, believing that there is no one-size-fits-all solution, even for two seemingly identical business problems or situations
The company takes pride in thinking out of the box, and in creating innovative solutions to environmental requirements and problems or challenges. Prism Express Consulting has its core group of combined veteran and young generation experts who provide inputs and guidance on practical solutions to the problems of most clients. While Prism Express Consulting still prides itself as one of the competent service providers in environmental management in the Philippines, it finds itself interested in reaching further and leaning towards neighboring Asian countries. “Working with our telecom clients has opened up opportunities and possibilities for international business partnerships. A leading international company has shown interest in partnering with us and venturing into regional projects. This could be a new and interesting adventure for Prism Express Consulting, if and when the partnership pushes forward”, says Engr Allan.
Prism Express Consulting is an organization that appreciates and values the contributions of every individual in the group. While hierarchy is important, the company keeps in mind that every team member is selected as part of the organization based on their skill and competence. “We value the individual’s career growth as well as their inter-personal growth developed and honed as they handle and manage projects and clients”, he adds.
The Road Ahead
The company has gained significant trust and recognition in the Philippines market with bespoke services and solutions in environmental and sustainability consultancy. Looking ahead, the company wants to develop a stronger client portfolio and become an implementing arm for the companies it partners with in the coming years. Prism Express Consulting also aims to minimize the duplication of systems or efforts and facilitate capacity building, leading to environmental compliance for the clients it serves. The company also has a vantage point on dynamic factors and its knowledge of institutional interrelations with the government's external offices, more particularly regulatory bodies and bureaus, which most business approvals and authorizations deeply rely on. “Prism Express Consulting is very familiar with the Philippine Environmental Impact Statement System and has assisted countless industries and sectors nationwide. And we set out and achieved our intended outcomes consistent with the existing legal and universal policies”, concludes Engr Allan.
