Benchmarking Performance

How do you define performance excellence in your energy facility? Is it through your reliability, output numbers, profit margin? Even if all of these factors look positive, how do you know how that compares to how well the competition is doing and where the hidden potential for improved performance lies?
Since 1980, we have used our proprietary benchmarking methodology—Comparative Performance Analysis (CPA™)—to show clients where their operations stand against the spectrum of their competition. It is only through this comparison process that you can truly identify the areas where your facilities could improve. We have continually refined and honed this process to make it the standard for gauging performance around the world.

Our analysis is designed to show a clear picture of how effectively you are allocating operating expenses, such as maintenance, in order to help you identify and make valuable changes to improve your margins.
We do not divulge any portion of our clients’ data or results to other companies or clients. This means that Solomon is the only company that has access to this data and can provide you with the perspective it offers.
Our analysis is strong because it starts with our proprietary data collection methodology. Experienced consultants validate every data set that we collect to ensure its accuracy. Our proven normalizing techniques then allow us to compare facilities with varying technologies, personnel, and locations.
