Benchmarking
Benchmarking is the systematic search for rational procedures and for targeted better solutions. Benchmarks are used as orientation or benchmark or target size for corporate governance.
The central question in benchmarking is: “What do others do and why are others more successful than us?” Benchmarking therefore means learning from companies that are perceived as exemplary how to improve, more consistently, more successfully, more efficiently and, above all, the cost-benefit ratio of certain areas, activities, processes and objectives in one’s own company. could make it more appropriate.
- Internal benchmarking consists of internal analyses and comparisons of procedures, structures, key figures within the company.
- Competitive benchmarking focuses on the analysis of products, services, target groups and their impact on the company, especially in terms of competitors and customers.
- Functional benchmarking compares and analyses processes, workflows and functions, consciously also of companies that are not direct competitors.
