I have some idea. But I am not sure. May be I am looking for benchmarking of various construction company's tenders/ contract winning ratio, employee satisfaction (salary, facilities, working conditions, normal turnover of employees, etc) percentage, customer satisfaction percentage, training hours, etc. I want to know how construction companies do bench marking
I need help

Re: Bench Marking in Construction Industry - Seeking Guidelines
Another source is the International Code Council (ICC) and its subsidiaries ICC ES and IAS.
http://www.iccsafe.org
ICC and subsidiaries are already active and involved in the UAE so you may find some value.....no promises but the construction and construction materials sectors are the genesis and passion for them.
Hope this helps.

Re: Bench Marking in Construction Industry - Seeking Guidelines
You can find two case studies regarding construction industry at the following website of Pakistan Institute of Quality Control. These can be ordered free of charge, but some conditions apply. Please take up contact with PIQC. It may be helpful to you.
