Benchmarking is the process of identifying, sharing, and using knowledge and best
practices. It focuses on how to improve any given business process by exploiting
top-quality approaches rather than merely measuring the best performance. Finding,
studying and implementing best practices provides the greatest opportunity for gaining a
strategic, operational, and financial advantage.
Informally, benchmarking could be defined as the practice of being humble enough to admit
that someone else is better at something and wise enough to try to learn how to match, and
even surpass, them at it. Benchmarking is commonly misperceived as simply number
crunching, site briefings and industrial tourism, copying, spying, or espionage. In no way
quick and easy, benchmarking is actually an ongoing process.
Benchmarking mirrors the continuous improvement efforts that may already exist in an
organisation. While benchmarking readily integrates with strategic initiatives such as
continuous improvement, re-engineering, and total quality management, it is also a
discrete process that delivers value to the organisation on its own.
