Present paper describes a measurement model that allows us a complete and flexible benchmarking among different research institutions (universities and research centres). The completeness of comparison comes out from the use of indicators which concern the main measurement dimensions of research, while the flexibility rises from the possibility to customize the evaluation methods designing new indicators. The model is made up of quantitative and simple measures and performance indicators that work well for all research institutions. It is organized into three measurement levels. These helps us to identify best practices as regards both particular results and overall performances of institutions. The model has been implemented in five Italian research institutions. Implementation proves that measurement model is a complete, simple and useful tool for research institutions performance benchmarking.

Abstract

Present paper describes a measurement model that allows us a complete and flexible benchmarking among different research institutions (universities and research centres). The completeness of comparison comes out from the use of indicators which concern the main measurement dimensions of research, while the flexibility rises from the possibility to customize the evaluation methods designing new indicators. The model is made up of quantitative and simple measures and performance indicators that work well for all research institutions. It is organized into three measurement levels. These helps us to identify best practices as regards both particular results and overall performances of institutions. The model has been implemented in five Italian research institutions. Implementation proves that measurement model is a complete, simple and useful tool for research institutions performance benchmarking.
