BENCHMARKING IS A MANAGEMENT TOOL

Benchmarking is based on facts. Successful decisions are not founded on mental images.

Promain Oy is a company that has cooperated with VTT Building Technology, a unit of the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, for more than 15 years producing benchmarking surveys of companies’ use of energy, energy consumption and environmental management. Promain Oy analyses the effects of each procedure on the direction and level of the consumption curve and compares the results to those of other companies.

Green values are costly but they can also help you save money. How much can your company invest in them or how much can you save? Environmental costs are manageable.

Promain Oy’s comparative reports will make you the champion in competition. They provide you with a tool that will indicate any leaks in your roof even if you can’t see a drip.

Measure the effects of your decisions – compare

You know the current situation of your company. But is it good or bad? Does the level of your monitoring target match the top rating or the bottom rating of other corresponding companies – your competitors? How far off are you now from the quarterly top rating?

The graph on which your company moves is far more vital to know than any single numeric data item. The use of single data items for direct comparisons between companies is not effective. It is only in a standardised, continuous and comparable form that a report can provide you with a truly applicable tool. It will indicate whether your progress is improving or declining. The results of your decisions are seen as comparable facts.

Advanced reports

Promain service reports are extremely flexible and advanced, with an increased number of comparable targets and comparison data. This provides you with a comprehensive means of information monitoring: energy consumption, real estate units, production, down-time, maintenance, services, the environment, etc.

In addition to annual reports, quarterly and monthly reports are now available!

Your own notes! Your own target values!

Every change has its cause. The decisions you have made, and their consequences, are visible in your own database in the form of your own notes, even after many years. Fading memory stickers get lost – save your decisions together with your reports. This will ensure that no one else has access to the information stored on your notes.

Set your own target values. Decide what must happen and by what point in time. The results and mutual consequences of decisions and changes will be visible from year to year.
