Benchmarking • Definition of a benchmark - a standard of excellence, achievement, etc., against which similar things must be measured or judged. –www.Dictionary.com (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/benchmarking) • Two types of commonly benchmarks • Past performance – GOAL oriented • External data sources such as industry and other peer definitions – OPPORTUNITY/EXPLANATION oriented
