What characterizes world-class benchmarking?

  1. Measuring performance against average industry metrics

  2. Comparing against the best performance in the world

  3. Focusing on historical performance improvements

  4. Using outdated practices as a reference

The correct answer is: Comparing against the best performance in the world

World-class benchmarking is characterized by comparing an organization's performance against the best practices and performance metrics from leading companies worldwide. This approach goes beyond simply measuring against average industry metrics or relying on historical data. By examining what the top performers are doing, organizations can identify gaps in their processes and implement strategies that push them to achieve superior results. This process of evaluating oneself against the highest standards allows businesses to adopt innovative techniques and operational efficiencies that contribute to excellence in performance and competitiveness in the market.
