Best practice benchmarking in the UK

Best practice benchmarking in the UK Reflects on a three-year project examining the evolving nature of "best practice" benchmarking in UK-based organisations. The findings describe the current state of benchmarking and some of its advantages across a wide variety of public and private sector organisations. Also investigates the disincentives to benchmarking activity experienced by practising benchmarkers, as well as the factors which inhibit the initial take-up of this technique. In addition, the notion that a maturity curve exists for organisations engaged in benchmarking is explored. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Benchmarking: An International Journal Emerald Publishing

Abstract

Reflects on a three-year project examining the evolving nature of "best practice" benchmarking in UK-based organisations. The findings describe the current state of benchmarking and some of its advantages across a wide variety of public and private sector organisations. Also investigates the disincentives to benchmarking activity experienced by practising benchmarkers, as well as the factors which inhibit the initial take-up of this technique. In addition, the notion that a maturity curve exists for organisations engaged in benchmarking is explored.
