Benchmarking Brief



Asking employees to submit suggestions about improving the business serves little purpose if employees find no actions taken in response and no explanation about why a suggestion wasn't implemented. By the same token, legitimate reasons not to act on a suggestion may exist. A little explanation, however, goes a long way. As the accompanying table indicates, a median 0.8 suggestions were implementated among IndustryWeek Best Plants winners and finalists over the past five years, compared with a median 1.3 suggestions recorded.

Suggestions per employee implemented last year:
Year Median Average Minimum Maximum
2006 0.7 2.3 0.0 17.9
2007 0.6 3.9 0.0 33.0
2008 0.6 2.6 0.0 32.0
2009 1.2 35.5 0.0 411.0
2010 1.9 6.1 0.1 27.0
2006-2010 0.8 9.6 0.0 411.0
