Cultural Change
Benchmarking allows organizations to set
realistic, rigorous new performance targets,
and this process helps convince people of
the credibility of these targets.
Performance Improvement
Benchmarking allows the organization to define
specific gaps in performance and to select the
processes to improve.
It provides a vehicle whereby products and services
are redesigned to achieve outcomes that meet or
exceed customer expectations.
The gaps in performance that are discovered can
provide objectives and action plans for improvement
at all levels of the organization and promote
improved performance for individual and group
participants.
