  • managing outbound transportation.

Key logistics measures in this brief assessment include:

  • Total cost to perform the process group "manage logistics and warehousing" per $1,000 revenue
  • Customer order cycle time in days
  • Inventory carrying cost as a percentage of inventory value
  • Number of full-time equivalent employees that perform the process group "manage logistics and warehousing" per $1 billion revenue
  • Expedited costs as a percentage of freight cost

All submissions to APQC's benchmarking database, both Open Standards Benchmarking and Rapid Performance Assessments, must be collected using APQC's easy-to-use Microsoft Excel data collection instruments.

Each benchmarking assessment offers an Excel-based data collection tool consisting of the survey itself, the measures associated with the survey, the glossary terms needed to understand the survey, and a copy of the Process Classification Framework (PCF) relevant to the data collection instrument. The consolidated data collection tool is intended to simplify the collection of benchmarking data within your organization.
