Free Benchmark Assessment

Aug. 15, 2012
Apriso offers free access to a manufacturing operations performance benchmarking tool for a limited time.


A key aspect of knowing what should be improved in your production processes is to have a benchmark assessment performed. These assessments are designed to let you know how your operations compare to your peers so that you can see where you measure up, where you excel, and where you fall short.

To help manufacturers begin this process, Apriso (a provider of operations management software for manufacturers) is offering access to a free benchmarking tool designed by the Aberdeen Group. The tool draws from performance data gathered by Aberdeen over the past year from global manufacturing companies. Aberdeen tracks the performance of more than 600,000 global companies.

The Aberdeen benchmarking tool generates a findings report after the input form is completed to provide manufacturers a quick overview of benchmark performance and operational acumen. The report compares your performance to that of your industry peers. This knowledge can then be used to evaluate what opportunities might yield the greatest positive impact on your operations.

Click here to access the free benchmark evaluation tool. The free benchmark tool will be available through December 31, 2012.
