What Is benchmarking???
 Benchmarking - process of comparing one's business processes and performance matrices to industry bests or best practices from
other companies
 Dimensions typically measured are quality, time and cost.
 In the process of best practice benchmarking, management identifies the best firms in their industry, or in another industry where
similar processes exist
 Organizations develop plans on how to make improvements or adapt specific best practices, usually with the aim of increasing
performance and efficiency.
 May be a one-off event, but is often treated as a continuous process in which organizations continually seek to improve their
practices.
 No single benchmarking process that has been universally adopted ,i.e., varies from industry to industry
Typical Stages in Benchmarking
1. Select subject
2. Define the process
3. Identify potential partners
4. Identify data sources
5. Collect data and select partners
6. Determine the gap
7. Establish process differences
8. Target future performance
9. Communicate
10. Adjust goal
11. Implement
12. Review and recalibrate
Bank of Best Practices : Ant Colonies
1. Organized
 There are three
types of ants in a
colony:
 Queen
 Workers
 Male
 Everyone has their
own specific job.
 Everyone does their
job so that a task
gets done more
quickly (gathering
food)
2. Share
 When one ant finds
food, they let the rest
of the colony know so
that everyone can
share it! Ants are never
selfish
3. Disciplined :
 They march in line one
after another. They
move about in order
and they never cut the
line!
4. Occupied
 Ants always have work
to do for the colony.
They work all day long!
 Ants are never lazy or
refuse to do work
5. Never Give Up
 Even when something is
hard or gets in the way of
them doing their best
work, they keep trying
until they overcome the
obstacle!!
Bank of Best Practices : Ant Colonies
6. As quickly as
possible
 Ants might be small,
but they sure are fast!
 They always do their
best work, but they try
to get things done as
quickly as they can.
 Often they work
together so that they
can get more done in
a day
7. Planning
 Honey ants work all
summer to store
enough food for the
colony to survive on
during the winter.
PLANNING in
advance
8. Hard Working
 Ants can carry 10
times their body
weight
 Just because
something is hard,
doesn’t mean an ant
will give up
9. TEAMWORK
 Everything an ant
does, is to benefit the
colony. Everyone
works together!
 They know their job
and they get it done!
 One might be
digging tunnels,
another might be
gathering food,but
every job is
important and
everyone will notice
if one ant is not
doing their job.
Best Practices to be Adopted in College

 College Workplace
can be made more
organized by specific
distribution of chores

bodies and staff
2. Share
 Sharing of knowledge
can do wonders and
group studies can
really help boost up
scores
3. Disciplined :

depends upon
academic discipline

discipline
4. Occupied

teaches time
management to
students to help
them deal with a
hectic tomorrow.
5. Never Give Up

be taught and
understood this
philosophy of
Never Giving up
on failures in
academics and
placements even

Best Practices to be Adopted in College

really help their career
prospects if they are fast
with their assignments and
daily lessons
7. PLANNING

much as hard work as
possible ( even smart

members

TEAMWORK
 College’s national ranking depends upon the collaborated efforts of students
and teachers
 Placement ratios are directly proportional to the teachers attitude towards
the placing companies
 Students performances boast up if group studies are nurtured
 College events are a success only if we have active participation and
teamwork from students and teachers together
Lessons learned by the team
 Teamwork is better than individuals working alone, and the whole is
worth more than the sum of its parts.
 Ants teach us that knowledge should be shared.
 Student body can boost up their efficiency if they imbibe ants' qualities:
1. Hard Work
2. Persistence
3. Patience
 Management Lessons can be easily learned by simply observing our surroundings.
 College administration can be made more robust if we take into consideration the
"PLAN AHEAD" philosophy of ants.
