Key Features

When you are on a benchmark page, you will find a number of tabs that allow you to learn more about the benchmark, its methodology, and how the companies scored.

Here you can find information about the benchmark and the formulas and weightings that go into each level of the benchmark. You can see the weighting that each section contributes to the overall score at each table row  by clicking either the whole row or the chevron icon at the left edge of the row. You can also see the type of metrics that make up the benchmark: research, score, and rating.
