  • Setting targets: Performance benchmarking provides a basis for setting realistic, data-driven performance targets that are aligned with industry standards and leading practices.
  • Identifying leading practices: By studying the practices of high-performing companies within the industry, performance benchmarking can help identify proven strategies and tactics that can be adapted and implemented to improve the company’s performance.
