COLUMBUS, Ohio – HARDI introduced the new Distributor Performance Analytics LLC at the Management Methods Committee meeting during the association’s annual conference. The project was formed by four industrial distributor associations to assist all fellow distributor associations in their efforts to improve their benchmarking pursuits.
“The goal of this project is to provide a solution that will not only increase participation by providing industry benchmarking that is modern, timely, and actionable, but by also providing cross-industry benchmarking capabilities,” said Greg Borr, the manager of corporate operations and purchasing at the O’Connor Co. in Lenexa, Kan., and co-vice chair of the Management Methods Committee. “The ability to ad-hoc report and filter dashboards will enable HARDI members to have a completely customizable performance benchmarking application. That combined with the increased frequency and timeliness of the outputs will help HARDI members develop measurements and key performance indicators that effectively drive business strategy and goals.”
