Capability and capacity benchmarking

Capability and capacity benchmarking is one of the methods used by Risk Sciences International to better manage risk.

Broadly

Capability and capacity benchmarking compares an organization’s resources, systems, and skills against standards, peers, or best practices. In risk management, it identifies gaps in readiness, performance, or scalability. This method supports investment planning, accountability, and continuous improvement. Challenges include choosing appropriate benchmarks and maintaining objectivity in assessments.

More specifically

RSI conducts capability and capacity benchmarking for clients in regulatory, public health, and critical infrastructure sectors. It applies sector-specific metrics and draws from global best practices to identify where systems meet, exceed, or fall short of expectations. RSI provides clear, actionable findings to support strategic investments and risk mitigation planning.
