Benchmarking

For those responsible for risk management and insurance procurement, benchmarking analyses provide critical input for optimizing decisions. At Rutherfoord, we see benchmarking as a powerful tool for a company’s senior leadership and decision makers.  The broadest definition of benchmarking is comparing a measurement to a standard.  This may be making a comparison to a standard set internally or one that is derived from a peer group.  Its value ranges from creating a sound starting point through monitoring results, and on toward goal achievement.      

 

Rutherfoord’s benchmarking capabilities span a spectrum of services aimed at reducing a company’s total cost of risk, such as:

  • Measuring limits
  • Retentions
  • Rates
  • Losses
  • Other costs 

Armed with this powerful data, a company can set, monitor and adjust goals in a measurable way by possessing timely and relevant information to adapt protocols, policies, procedures, tactics and strategies to achieve the mission.
