Platform: Stock terms in the IPI lexicon include “education,” “professional development,” and “sustainability.” Less common but relevant to members’ livelihoods are terms such as “operating margin,” “profit & loss (P&L),” and “return on investment (ROI).” Members often express a desire to be better able to: a) gauge the investment attributes of a technology/system they’re considering; and then b) convey the value – environmentally, operationally and financially – to those individuals who write and sign the checks.
