Benchmarking is the process of comparing one's business processes and performance metrics to industry bests and/or best practices from other industries.

The term benchmarking was first used by cobblers to measure people's feet for shoes. They would place someone's foot on a "bench" and mark it out to make the pattern for the shoes.
