estudios de comparación con parámetros de referencia


Explanation:
Aunque muchos usan benchmarking sin traducir, yo también prefiero traducirlo. Me ha tocado traducir algunos estudios de "benchmarking" para compañías eléctricas, y lo que hacen es comparar el desempeño o rendimiento de la empresa, los costos, etc., con empresas similares de otros países (o incluso de otras ciudades del mismo país) para evaluar su eficiencia.
