Kinaxis, provider of the on-demand supply chain management service RapidResponse, launched a new benchmarking service, available at no cost, to any registered member of the free Supply Chain Expert Community powered by Kinaxis.

This service provides information to companies interested in comparing their supply chain performance against multiple companies and across various metrics, the company says.

Users can do an immediate competitive comparison against a specific list of companies selected from an up-to-date database of more than 15,000 public companies in the manufacturing sectors, or group companies based on categories of peers, customers and suppliers.
