Competition requires benchmarking. Normally this revolves around the comparison of prices or specific products and services. Benchmarking is now being used by organisations to compare best practice in order to gain information on how superior performance is achieved. This form of benchmarking needs to be systematic and allied to strategic aims. Benchmarking takes time and investment but the rewards can be huge.
