Encore Strategic Benchmarking provides Benchmarking provides insight into a company's financial key performance indicators (KPIs) by using with data derived from expenses, revenue, and employee count. The 17 16 metrics calculated quarterly and monthly measure overall profitability and the employees' contribution over revenue and net operating income.
All accounts in the Encore Strategic Benchmarking app are classified to include account groups, categories, and subcategories which consist of all accounts that are directly mapped to that specific grouping. This consists of all accounts associated with their parent categories and any nested subcategories. By following this approach, any account that is mapped to the designated group, category, or subcategory, including those mapped to the nested categories and subcategories within the account hierarchy, will be incorporated.
This article shows how the following metrics are calculated:
