• Benchmarking tool for improving the quality of the selected product
    Successful launch of a new product depends strictly on its quality and the degree of meeting the requirements of a potential recipient. Diagnosing the needs and preferences of consumers is a key task of the manufacturer in the development and improvement of product quality. The identification of competitors, including multi-aspect analysis of their activities, will enable to identify possible sources of competitive advantage in a given industry and elements of improvement of the product or service offered or designed.

The use of benchmarking as a process of improvement by comparison with the best is an effective tool for obtaining data on the introduction of possible improvements to the product.
