Benchmarking
BENCH MARKING :
Benchmarking is nothing but comparison between process/ product or the service in order . The point of benchmarking is to identify internal opportunities for improvement.
There are two types of benchmarking namely
1.Bench marking 1 - define the competitors, price segment and features on the segment.
2.Benchmarking 2 – component wise comparison from the competitor vehicle to reduce the weight of the car thereby improving the performance.
Here I take these cars for comparison;
1.Maruthi Suzuki ciaz sigma 1.5
2.hyndai verna E1.5 VTVT
3.Mahindra XUV 300 w4 1.5 diesel
- Tata nexon XMA (s) petrol
