What is MetricSense?

Companies are under great stress to compete efficiently. Since competing companies generally operate similarly, it is extremely beneficial for those companies to be able to compare business practices without risk of sharing their own innovation or 'opening the books' to their competition.

MetricSense™ is a customizable system designed to meet this need. It allows companies and organizations, through their Professional Association, to benchmark their own position and operations against that of like-in-kind companies, without exposing their own identifiable data.

The system captures data, produces, and distributes 'boardroom quality' reports. These reports assist companies in determining their direction, and analyzing where they stand in regards to their peers and competition. For the Professional Association, MetricSense immediately provides a profitable service and, at the same time, accumulates a rich data warehouse for future mining in service to its members.
