Supply Chain metrics and benchmarking
18th October 2007 by Gail Van Den Bos1 Comment
Is there any value to benchmarking in supply chains? And how reliable is the information? Is the only organisation that benefits the one that does the number crunching and writes a report?
Where a set of metrics is issued to a company showing how they sit against their competitors, do they do anything with the information? From my experience, I’m not sure that they do.
Perhaps this is because where benchmarking reports are being issued by external organisations not so much attention is given to them: shouldn’t companies in supply chains be benchmarking for themselves?
