“Benchmarking Unlocked Hidden Cost Savings of 45%!”

“Benchmarking Unlocked Hidden Cost Savings of 45%!”

Have you benchmarked your cost of goods and services lately? Before my clients work with me, they will either answer by saying no or not for a very long time or only against our internal performance metrics. 

For our purposes, benchmarking is defined as comparing existing pricing, fitness for use, and quality of goods and services to best-in-class external criteria.

Let’s examine a few reasons why benchmarking is important and how it can unlock hidden cost savings:

1.   Continuous Improvement

Benchmarking will help you to identify any weaknesses that exist in your current programs. By leveraging the external best practices and knowledge of others, you can work towards turning the weaknesses in your existing programs into strengths.   

2.   Improve Profitability

Benchmarking will help you to lower your operational costs and give you insight into your existing competitiveness in the marketplace. 

3.   Competitive Edge

Leverage the power of benchmarking to help you to strive towards obtaining a competitive advantage through lower operating costs, better negotiation strategies, and improved ability to effectively take your products and or services to market.

Now for a quick case study: Jim, the CEO of a large manufacturing company came to me to benchmark their waste hauling/disposal costs at one of their largest facilities. Waste hauling/disposal spend made up a large portion of their annual budget and their costs continued to creep up year after year. Jim wanted us to benchmark their existing waste hauling/disposal program against the Purchasing Results, LLC preferred programs. After many years working with Fortune 500 companies and others, utilizing our preferred pricing programs, proprietary formulas, and analytics as a benchmark, we were able to provide Jim with a new waste hauling/disposal program with cost savings of 45%!
