Welcome to the Benchmarking Forum


For many years benchmarking within logistics has been recognised as an important tool for both public and private sector organisations. The benchmarking process involves:

  • Gathering good quality and accurate data;
  • Measuring KPI performance against targets 
  • Using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure your performance;
  • Regularly comparing KPIs  internally and externally

Its focus is to employ careful analysis of Industry data to compare performance, examine Industry trends, answer critical business questions, and identify best practices.
