Using Utility Facilities Benchmarking Results

Utility Facility Shared Practice Meeting

This month’s utility facilities group shared practice discussion will be about the application of benchmarking results.  Many facility teams collect benchmarking data on cost, maintenance, energy, staffing, service levels, and facility condition.  The key question is how those results are actually used.

Although helpful as a general reference, benchmarking results can be valuable when they are used to support a real decision: explaining performance to leadership, defending a budget request, setting improvement priorities, evaluating service levels, or developing a practical action plan.

This topic matters now because facility leaders are being asked to defend budgets, manage aging assets, support reliability and resilience, control operating costs, and document the rationale for capital and operating decisions. And for utility facilities, context matters. A storm-response facility, network control center, headquarters, warehouse, or crew headquarters may have very different service expectations, security requirements, operating hours, and risk exposure.

Join us to share what you are doing and hear what other utilities are doing. All utility staff and business partners are welcome to participate.

Please take the short shared practice survey on this topic – it will only take a few minutes and your input is greatly appreciated. Upon completion you will go to the meeting registration form (and all participants get the survey results whether they can attend the meeting or not).
