How to Use Benchmarks on Demand

BOD Steps

Benchmarks on Demand is organized around APQC’s main research topics. Each topic (e.g., supply chain management) has a set of associated processes and measures for each process (e.g., “supply chain management costs per $1000 revenue”).
 
To run a report, navigate through the topics to browse available measures and select the ones that meet your needs. 

Once you’ve chosen your desired measures, select relevant peer groups (i.e., industry, organization size, geography) and generate your downloadable report. To get a report, you don’t have to provide your organization’s performance data.
