Portuguese term or phrase: Prisma
Hello Everyone,

I am translating a service order from an auto repair shop in Brasília. The vehicle was damaged in an accident and needed some bodywork and other repairs. In the box where the estimator's name is given the word "prisma" appears followed by a colon. This is not a Chevy Prism, or "Prisma" as it is known in Brazil. The car is another make. The word is just on their standard form with no other context. What could "prisma" mean in this situation?

Many thanks in advance!
