1 ABOUT APQC's The APQC Open Standards Benchmarking measure list concisely lists all of the measures currently available through APQC's benchmarking portal for its members. These measures are organized by research area (A), the most recent survey in which the measure appeared (B), and finally by category of measure (C). The list identifies each measure's "metric group ID" number (D), the measure name (E), the formula in english as APQC computes it(f), the formula in APQC's "question library identifiers" (G), and whether or not the measure is a key performance indicator for its associated process (H). For more information about APQC's Open Standards Benchmarking, please contact us directly on or visit the APQC Open Standards Benchmarking website on 1 of /20/ APQC
