What is Baseline?
Baseline is an above average standard of performance for the type and location of an operation.
How is it Determined?
A Baseline is derived from national reference data and case study research. If national reference data or case study research are not available for a specific indicator, then the first enterprise that benchmarks will have its results set as 15% better than Baseline (i.e., halfway between Baseline and Best Practice).
Do all indicators have Baselines?
No. Optional Indicators do not have Baselines. See 'Can I have tailored indicators'.
