Why join the Benchmarking Consortium?
Conduct workforce planning.
Identify under-resourced areas for reinvestment, over-resourced areas for reallocation, and determine how competitive your institution is in recruiting and retaining staff.
Benchmark against member institutions.
Understand how your investment in revenue-generating activities compares to other UC system institutions and other members.
Support key financial processes.
Put your data to work in aligning annual budgets, resource plans, and strategic planning.
Impact student success.
Demonstrate how labor spend investment can translate into improvements in enrollment, retention, and completion.
Go deeper on the impact of staffing and satisfaction
Understand where the institution is generating value and satisfaction while also revealing potential areas of underinvestment in resources from a people, process, or technology standpoint with our Administrative Quality and Satisfaction Surveys (AQSS). These surveys provide a more complete picture of the effectiveness of your labor investments by surveying faculty and staff on their satisfaction with administrative service units.
