Business Performance Diagnostic
The Business Performance Diagnostic is a free, independent, impartial service to help you step back and take a strategic look at your business. It's not about telling you how to run your business; it's about providing you with the information you need to make the right decisions.
The Business Performance Diagnostic stages are:-

• A benchmark or holistic business review process to give you an objective overview of your current performance compared to similar businesses,
• A structured development plan linked to your own business goals.
