ABOUT APQC's OPEN STANDARDS BENCHMARKING MEASURE LIST

Transcription

1 ABOUT APQC's OPEN STANDARDS BENCHMARKING MEASURE LIST The APQC Open Standards Benchmarking measure list concisely lists all of the measures currently available for a specific survey. These measures are organized by research area (A), the survey name (B), and finally by category of measure (C). The list identifies each measure's "metric group ID" number (D), the measure name (E), the formula in english as APQC computes it(f), the formula in question numbers specific to this survey (G), and whether or not the measure is a key performance indicator for its associated process (H).

Content is developed and reviewed by various subject matter experts. Participation in APQC's Open Standards Benchmarking is complimentary for APQC Enterprise Members. APQC Functional Members can benchmark in their functional membership at no cost. By participating, you will receive a detailed table comparing your responses with those of your peers. In essence, you ll get a row-by-row comparison of your responses versus those of your peers. The data tables will feature your answers as well as indicate the high, median and low performance ranges. Past participants have used open standards benchmarking research reports to set baselines for process improvement projects, to build a business case for new initiatives, to prioritize high-impact opportunities, and even to validate success or return on investment from efforts.
