Benchmarking reviews are sometimes closely aligned with best practices achievements and also provide a basis to quickly compare an organization’s own way of doing things with the methods of other like organizations.

Sample benchmark types and figures are presented below in order to illustrate the type of benchmarking data which may stem from the Aplicor system and be a part of a client benchmarking project.
