Benchmark Index

A service available from various business support organisations, including Business Links, to bring high quality benchmarking information and consultancy within easy reach of SMEs for the first time.

The Benchmark Index allows a company to measure its performance against others in around 80 aspects of finance, operations, management and business excellence. Industry sector, size of company or geographical region can be benchmarked against.

The benefits are:

  • comparing specific performance against others
  • helping management teams assess and improve overall business performance
  • providing quantifiable, objective data;

  • identifying business areas for improvement;

  • prompting action plans to implement improvements;

  • encouraging regular and systematic performance monitoring.

All with the help of trained advisers.

For more information ring the Benchmark Index Hotline on +44 (0)1782 371 800, or the Benchmark Index website.
