Observing the methods and tools used by large companies, this book studies the conditions under which it would be possible to provide support to SMEs at a lower cost and with greater methodological and organizational backing. The author presents the proposed solution, Benchmarking Collaborative Network, which would provide SMEs access to information about their level of competitiveness, the key areas for the creation of competitive advantage and the activities required to achieve this advantage.Contributions to Management Science,1431-1941EntrepreneurshipManagementIndustrial managementInformation technologyBusiness—Data processingIndustrial organizationEntrepreneurshiphttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/514000Innovation/Technology Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/518000IT in Businesshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522000Industrial Organizationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31010Entrepreneurship.Management.Industrial management.Information technology.Business—Data processing.Industrial organization.Entrepreneurship.Innovation/Technology Management.IT in Business.Industrial Organization.330338.6650658421658514Rostek Katarzynaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1061708BOOK9910298516403321Benchmarking Collaborative Networks2519758UNINA
