Description

This comprehensive guide explores how organisations across industries can validate and implement best practices for continuous improvement. Built on foundational benchmarking work pioneered at Xerox in the 1980s, the book examines competitive analysis, performance excellence awards, and corporate recognition programmes that document proven approaches. Through detailed case studies, readers discover real-world examples of best practice functions and processes, learning how to distinguish between genuine high-performing methods and practices that merely claim superiority without evidence. The book addresses the evolution from 1990s benchmarking trends into today's ongoing documentation of what actually works, providing practitioners with frameworks for evaluating whether a process, result, or method truly delivers measurable improvements.
